Array.org EeePC Ubuntu Repository

Welcome!

Hello fellow Eee PC owner! Welcome to my repository.

Within this site you find a selection of customized EeePC kernel packages and support utilities designed specifically for Ubuntu Linux and your Asus Eee PC.

This project was started in June 2008 as a way to simplify the setup and installation process of Ubuntu on the Asus Eee PC, and to provide a method for upgrading to future versions of third-party drivers and stable Linux kernels. It has since grown to span two releases of Ubuntu (Hardy Heron and Intrepid Ibex) plus provide preliminary support for non-Asus hardware (i.e., Acer Aspire One).

As of Ubuntu v8.10 (Intrepid Ibex), Ubuntu itself does not provide 100% support for the Eee PC out-of-the-box. My kernel packages will deliver for you a Linux kernel with full wired, wireless, webcam, and sound card support via the latest drivers from various third parties, plus a few more extra optimizations.

Please note, if you have already installed Ubuntu-Eee v8.04.1 or Eeebuntu 1.0, you already have my kernel and you're linked into the repository! You don't need to do anything else!

If you're running vanilla Ubuntu v8.04 or v8.10 (including variants Kubuntu, Xubuntu, gOS, etc) then you can directly benefit from this custom kernel. Please proceed to the setup instructions. (If you're still running the Xandros install that came with your Eee PC, or you use Windows XP or another non-Ubuntu variant of Linux, I cannot help you. You'll need to install Ubuntu first.)

Thanks!
