Thanks Spline. But that's a kludge isn't it? Admittedly a kludge that 
may enable me to make the leap to Ubuntu. When you install Ubuntu on an 
Eee 1000 does it make sensible suggestions about partitions?

I realised yesterday that Xandros doesn't tell you when your 
none-standard apps have updates waiting. It's also installed the new 
version of apps without removing the icon from the old version. Why ASUS 
didn't just provide a repo and use standard update tools that work is 
beyond me.
