EeePC 900 && 10-CURRENT: a story of success

[Daniel Stolpe]

Hello,

Good to hear. I run patched 10-current on a new Lenovo Thinkpad X121e and 
yes, most thinks works fine, even webcam. The only thing that remains is 
to get microphone to work properly in Skype. (Video works great).

Just a question, why do you run such old ports on top of a brand OS?

I went straight for KDE-4.7.3 etc.
