I'm sure that some the our xNIX gurus will show you the way. I have used
some amazing UNIX online automated software installers like CPAN. You
tell it what you want to run, it figures out what libraries you lack, and
installs everything you need. Quite amazing.
Apparently, the Eee uses the Synaptic package manager, which is one
of the easier ones to use (does all that dependancy tracking for you).
It's the same package manager used in Ubuntu.
