EeePC - Fedora or Ubuntu?

I am using F10 on the EeePC which works ok, I just have problems with
wakeup after suspend sometimes. You might also need to install some
stuff from rpmfusion to get wireless working.

Another distribution to try would be: http://moblin.org/ . It is a bit
like Xandros but nicer and is a Fedora fork, so it is very easy to
install additional software with yum. It also has a user interface
which works pretty good on netbooks. It comes with all the drivers you
need for the EeePC.
