Voytek,
You might want to have a look at the new Zenwalk Live Edition to run on
the netbook
http://www.zenwalk.org/modules/news/article.php?storyid=117
It is fast and has a relatively small footprint in terms of both CPU and
memory consumption (in the installed version it loads with 50 Mb of RAM
in the init 3 mode).At the same it has most of the applications one
would need for everyday use as well as the 2.6.33.4 kernel

Hope this may prove to be of use
Regards
Michael Primrose
