[ILUG] Anyone using moblin?

[Gary Pigott]

I installed it on my Acer Aspire One when 2.0 came out. It looks gorgeous, 
and is reasonably nice to use. The 10 second boot time is pretty nice too. 
The one *major* issue I have with it is it's lack of MP3 or Divx codecs (or 
easy ways of installing same), which is a pretty major ommision for a device 
that I use for email/web and movies. I have mine running as a dual boot with 
Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10. Moblin when I need to check email quickly and UNR 
for real (or as real as it gets with a netbook) work.

It looks deadly, thinking about installing it on my kids eeepc. Trying
to remember if it has an atom proc or not. 701 eeepc.
I could google it, or look at /proc/cpuinfo, but this bottle of burgendy
is too nice... hic.
