I am currently using my Acer Aspire One with Ubuntu Netbook Remix. It’s noisy at home right now so I have no idea if the fan is noisy or what.
Ubuntu Netbook Remix seems to working just fine. Installing it was a breeze. Probably took just 10 minutes and I was amazed that it was so quick. Most features seem to work so far, except wireless. I installed madwifi already but it’s not yet working. :( Hrm. I’d still have to go through the Aspire One forums as well as Ubuntu forums for this. In any case, these things seem to work fine:
- Volume buttons
- Brightness buttons
- Wired internet
- Mute button
- Battery applet – It seems to indicate how much I really still have left for power.
- USB ports
I don’t what else to ask for at the moment except for wireless and for my fan to work just fine.

I recently fully recovered my Dell Inspiron 1300. It was slow as hell but now with Xubuntu installed it works better than new. I hate that programs are getting way more complex. Pritty soon we’ll need supercomputers to handle basic email. Linux is the future. People are becoming too smart for Apple and Microsoft.

I also have an Acer Aspire One, the 8Gb version. Never had problems installing the Ubuntu Netbook Remix. Sadly, I found it buggy and it sometimes hangs when I switch from application to application. So finally i switched to TinyXP a minimized hack version of XP that has a 1GB footprint… =)
