Thanks for the replies folks, I'll take a look. I'm not sure which model she has and I don't know how the models differ. I think perhaps the wireless needs NDISWrapper but I don't know. If you could bring a bootable USB with Karmic on for the meet Doof I'd be eternally grateful. Not sure what I've done with my USB stick at the moment. I'm gonna do a bit of research and see what I can find out. I'm sure I've heard many stories of people using the Wind with Linux. I'm sure it's possible.<div>
<br></div><div>She asked me the other night and of course I responded with "yeah no problem we can get that working" without thinking. Probably should have double checked it would actually work but there's nothing like confidence, and Guinness hehe. I was certain I'd heard of people using Linux on the Wind a lot. It seems pretty standard hardware.</div>
