Take a look if you are interested.

Linux on U100 – Fedora 9

Today I foound a very interesting link in my mailbox.  That link, to Jethro Carr’s Toshiba Libretto u100 pages, offers you some general information about the U100.

Even more interesting is his very useful guide on how to install Fedora Linux 9 on your U100. Apparently there are some serious issues with WIFI, Bluetooth and CPU frequency scaling. Jethro does a great job with his well documented guide on compile a new kernel for your system.
