Mageia with KDE or LXDE on Asus Eee 701 4G
Tested
Mageia 1 with both an update from Mandriva, and a full install, one with KDE and the other with LXDE, and
Mageia 2 with LXDE.
Update with KDE
Updated without any problem from a Mandriva 2010.0 install.
The Mageia-KDE installation needs more than 4 Gb (as did the Mandriva-KDE one), I did the install on an 8Gb SD card.
CAUTION: The Mageia update changes the video settings to 1024×600; be sure to restore it to 800×480 in the post-install config.
All the other peripherals worked straight out of the update (a they did under Mandriva), including the camera, ethernet and Wifi.
Install with LXDE
Installed without any problem
Both the Mageia 1 and Mageia 2 LXDE install take less than 2 Gb, fit comfortably on the internal storage.
All the peripherals worked straight out of the install, including the camera, ethernet and Wifi.
