Ubuntu Mobile on the ASUS Eee

Liliputing shows us an ASUS Eee running a pre-release version of Ubuntu Mobile. Ubuntu Mobile is basically a version of Ubuntu meant to run on UMPCs and other handheld devices.

It looks good, but WiFi doesn’t work just yet. Hopefully, it’ll be fixed on the final release. If I get so tempted I’ll install this on my Eee and get rid of Windows XP.

    Ubuntu 8.04 LTS is working perfectly on my Eee PC 701 4G — probably due to the amazing support of http://www.array.org/ubuntu/index.html.

    I don’t notice any slowness and I primarily use Firefox 3.

    Check out Ubuntu EEE. It’s basically Ubuntu Mobile with drivers suited for EEE PC’s (read: working wifi). http://www.ubuntu-eee.com/
