I think users want to have a cook book like reciept, how to enable the 
features of their eeepc. So having a page per (group of) eeepc model would be 
fine. It is nice for the writers of theses pages, too, because they can 
concentrate on the model they own. But these pages should all be similar 
structured and will contain some duplicate stuff. To reduce this duplication we 
need some basic information on the eepc main page and some additional pages of 
special topics, for example about SSDs and partitioning them.

We shall try to separate things, which are neccessary to make the eeepc work 
and other optional things, which are a matter of taste.

I have gone another way.

I have installed openSUSE 11.1 and replaced to kernel only by the latest one 
from the Kernel:HEAD repository. Things that worked without problems, which 
havent with the original kernel: Hotkeys, except xrandr handling, WLAN 
inclusive rfkill support (no madwifi required anymore!). The only thing that I 
had to configure is the load of the pciehp and rfkill-input modules.
