Linpus Linux on the Acer Aspire One
The Acer Aspire One mini-laptop uses a Taiwanese Linux distribution called Linpus Linux (http://www.linpus.com is often down, check wikipedia for some info). The UI, though customized, is based on Xfce. For a little bit of an introduction to the device, have a look at Jasper's blog post.
Modified Xfce components
- Thunar: show available disk space
- xfdesktop: heavily modified to provide the big links to startup programs.
- ?Some settings dialogs?
Please add to this list if you have noticed anything else.
