Got myself an HP 5101. Out of the box it comes pre-loaded with Win XP. This lasted approximately 3 weeks before it got infected! So out goes Windows and in comes something else, so far I've tried:
- Moblin 2.0 - great interface but couldn't get wireless working, will have to revisit
- Linux Mint 7 - installed OK but failed to boot, couldn't see SDA!
Next on the list to try is:
- Ubuntu 9.04 remix - might be OK
- OpenSuse 11.1 - seeing as HP can ship the 5101 with SLED then this might just work OK!
It is a great device but shows fingerprints horribly, also the battery isn't as good as I expected.
Agreed with you. Same problem here
