Hi,
	I believe Robert answered your previous questions. As for the wifi
chip, yes, this is the first we have heard of an eee model coming with
an atheros N chip. Glad you got it sorted out installing a 27 kernel
which supports the chip. Whilst lenny is in freeze, this is going to be
hard for us to support this model, as of course the kernel is frozen
with 2.6.26. If you have the time, opening a new page for this model on
our wiki would be appreciated. Mostly if you could just document the
things that are different for that model and what you have needed to do
to get it working. Glad to here you have got it basically working.

Cheers

Glenn
