Summary

Discussion
I'm running ubuntu 9.04 desktop and have issues with the touchscreen and buttons on the screen.
Hello, I have had very few troubles with ubuntu 904 netbook remix beta EXCEPT getting the dam USB touch screen to work…
Power management problems of old are a thing of the past but I really miss my old p1610 as at least I could use the tricky yet effective conan solution for the serial touch screen interface.
Anyone out there had any success?
