There's no reason I know of it shouldn't work.

The wiki is open to anyone to edit. You can start by creating a fresh

I don't know if a search index is kept anywhere. Google might help,
using the keyword:

site:lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/debian-eeepc-devel/

Asking here is fine.

If Arch was OK, chances are you should have no issues with Debian.

So far as I know, the 1018P is quite similar to the 1015P, and that is
known to work.
