ASUS Eee Top Fails With Linux
ASUS is among the few tier-one hardware vendors that understands Linux. Of the dozens of ASUS products we have tested over the years, it is hard to remember a product from ASUS that did not work well with Linux.
Their recently introduced Eee Top series, however, is not Linux friendly at all with the current generation of Linux distributions. The ASUS Eee Top ET1602 is a mighty fine piece of hardware at an exceptional value, but it does not know how to play with Linux without taking some advanced steps.
After the phenomenal success of the Eee PC netbooks, ASUS introduced the Eee Box, which is a mini computer also powered by the Intel Atom processor. Around the same time they announced the Eee Top, which is an all-in-one computer that comes complete with a touch-screen. Their initial Eee Top products include the ET1602 and ET1603, with the former now shipping in the United States.
