All the best, Tim Thanks Tim, yip I think i will be organising to send it back today some time, although i will be lost without my Eee :-( Just an update. I RMA'd my Eee and it was sent back to me this week and the engineer had reported Unable to simulate your error - returned unrepaired. Needless to say I was a little livered! But I had owned it for less than 28 days and so took it back to PC world this evening, demonstrated my problem, and was offered a refund or replacement. They didn't have any stock, so i took the refund. I'm not put off however, and after a little bit of searching, located stock in dabs.com It's on order and will hopefully be with me next week to be Ubuntufied from first boot!

I charged it and immediately installed Ubuntu and adamm's kernel from array.org. Everything works brilliant! However, I appear to be having an issue with the sensor from the lid. it appears to think that it opens and closes randomly. see an image here [1], the screen was open all the time. I have disabled all the power preferences that relate to the lid functions, so it doesn't bug me, although every now and then the screen flashes off and on. Is it worth sending it back for repairs? or something i should only do if it bugs me enough? thanks --Michael [1] http://www.mgfletcher.com/pictures/eee/power_history.png -- _ Michael Fletcher Visit my website here - http://www.mgfletcher.com/blog Interested in Linux?
