Story: 'Polished' Moblin adds 3G support, plug-ins
"polished Moblin"
I downloaded, and installed Moblin 2.1, on my netbook. It is an HP 1115NR
Mini.webcam, Atom processor, 16 gig SSD, 1 gig ram. It is an extremely fast version, boot quickly and shuts down in seconds. Actual boot time was around 15 seconds. I was elated! But when I tried to find my neighbor WIFI, there was no connections available. I went online and tried to play an MP3 file, missing a plugin. Setup evolution mail, and it could not connect to mail server. The webcam came on but would not show anything but a black square. I was hoping this version was capable of replacing Mandriva, on this netbook, but it looks like it is still lagging in too many areas.
