I've seen/used one with a Fedora 8 install on it (reformatted/reinstalled of course) and NM works there. One issue is that neither wired nor wireless card is yet supported by upstream in-kernel drivers. The wired card driver (atl2 I think?) is in the process of being upstreamed, and the ath5k driver doesn't yet support PCI-E which is the Atheros part's connection method on the EeePC. Out of the box, I'd imagine NM would work presuming a sufficient D-Bus version was installed, the wireless driver supports WEXT correctly, and there was a place to put a notification area (or you run knetworkmanager).
