Easypeasy.

[pop3]

Ive been trying to download Easypeasy for my Eee pc 701 from. jaist.dl.sourceforge.net

The download would take 122 hours !

Where are you all getting these downloads from ? 122 hours is a lot of twiddling thumbs and drinking coffee

Try another mirror, the Australian ones are generally pretty fast. Taiwan ones are often ok (but not always), same with Japan.

How are you getting on with easypeasy?

I was planning on upgrading my eeePC from Xandros to eeeUbuntu but have just discovered easypeasy seems to be an update of that. I guess its got to have improvements, so I should try it instead.

Ok, I have tried downloading easypeasy from two sites. The first download took about 5 seconds. After failing to open it I was told I needed Vuse. Downloaded Vuse. It turned out to be a Windows version. Searched and found Linux versions. Downloaded that. I have no idea how to get that going. When I try it asks me what to open it with. I think I'm chasing my tale. Downloaded a large 'Easypeasy' file from a different site and put on a USB stick. Followed the instructions, but it doesn't work on boot up. Ok, burnt it to DVD as a live CD, as recommended. That doesn't work either. Searched and searched for help in forums without success.

So, I do have a USB eeeUbuntu that I know will work. But having used it before I know it had issues with sound and webcam which I why I never stuck with it. It has probably been six months since I used it. I am wondering if the issues are likely to have been fixed, and if they will come as downloads if I install it? Also I see there’s also eeeXubuntu and Ubuntueee as well as a few other similar sounding OSs.

Has anyone any experience of the various eeePC versions of Ubuntu? I'll probably just try them one by one for a while.
