I'm running Linux Mint 11 on this…. wireless works fine out of the box, same with USB and the webcam (to get the webcam running I just installed Cheese and it worked right away). And the SD slot works fine too. I haven't played around in this too much, but the computer works fine, no real issues with the parts I've tried out. Everything works great.
i need the driver of the webcam in ubuntu 9.10 can anybody help me .. thanks
