I might as well stay with Android. I actually have to start working
with it for my day job. I work for Verizon Enterprise Systems and my
research is leading me to working on some product development. Sigh. I
LIKE research; kind of like Medcalf back at Xerox....
One of the problems with trying to drop Linux onto most tablets is the
complete lack of a real disk subsystem, just slow SD card interfaces.
That really hurts although it can still be usable.
hmmm.
On my ee701 (4Gb SSD), I had used a 8Gb SD card for most of f12, then
f14. It worked well enough. WIth f17, I jumped to a 16Gb SD; it was
a cheap one and perhaps that is why it failed in constant use? My
layout has /boot, /var, and swap on the SSD and everything else on the
SD card. This time I am going to set it so that I fit everything on
the SSD drive; that is going to be quite a slimmed down install.
Instead of a 1.5Gb swap (1Gb memory). I will go with something just
over 1Gb so hopefully hibernate still works. But perhaps again for
what I use it for, a 5Gb swap is ok and forget hibernate all together
as suspend does work.
I have a Asus 1000 that came with Linux on it , it had 32gb SSD I
upgraded it to 64gb SSD.
I use mine more than I use my Laptop or PC and I have upgraded it with
Fedora since F10. And it is the reason I won't buy a Tablet.
The Mini's are cheaper than a Tablet, 1/2 to 1/3 .
These Tablets are waste of money, I don't understand why people jump on
the wagon just to be like their friends.
My most fun is when a friend pulls out a iphone and I pull out my Galaxy
SII with that larger screen on them, and say THIS !!! is a real cell phone.
