Asus chose Xandros, I don't see that they'll ever officially support
another Linux.

However, good community support for the whole class of small cheap
notebooks that the EeePC spawned is interesting. From what I've seen in
EeePC forums, the EeePC Xandros is the first linux for many of its
users. They tend to switch to a different distribution as soon as they
notice that they don't get the software they need from Asus' software
repositiores.

Most drift to Ubuntu, though, for known and various reasons.
