I've a new Asus UL30 that is quite nicely running Ubuntu 9.10. (For info, 
Debian testing 
AMD64 crashed the wired ethernet -- rebooting in the Win7 even showed no 
adapter! Had to 
power down and restart. If anyone wants to try to sort this out to submit a bug 
report, 
contact me off list.)

However, my main problem now is to turn on SHMConfig so I can control the 
touchpad with 
synclient etc. I've tried about half a dozen different suggested fdi policy 
files for hal 
with no apparent success. I'm still told that

> j...@ul30karmic:~$ synclient -h
> Can't access shared memory area. SHMConfig disabled?
> j...@ul30karmic:~$ 
> 

If someone has experience playing around with SHMConfig (or touchpad controls), 
please get 
in touch. The jumpy touchpad is annoying on an otherwise fine machine.
