Yes, it can be installed and works well! It helps if you increase the panel size for touch and there's also a gconf key that increases the button/widget sizing in the launcher, so it's easier to use with touchscreens (needs a restart of the launcher): gconftool-2 --set /apps/netbook-launcher/tablet_mode --type BOOL true this setting could be a bit rough around the edges, but I use UNR on my Samsung Q1 daily, and it seems fine. Regards, Neil P.S. I also find it useful to hack $your_fav_gtk_theme's gtkrc and increase the xpadding and ypadding attributes for scrollbars, checkboxes and radiobuttons, to make gnome a bit more touch-friendly :) > > Thanks, > Javi > > > 2009/3/25 Paul Larson <[email protected]> > There is only a short time left before 9.04 beta, but a beta > candidate > is available at: > > http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/ubuntu-netbook-remix/daily-live/current/jaunty-netbook-remix-i386.img > > If you have a netbook, and would like to help, grab the image > and a USB > stick to boot from and head over to: > http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/test/2475 > > There you will find some basic test plans for testing the > install of > UNR.
