Got me thinking about using a standard Linux distro on a Chrome book.
Has anyone tried this? Is it possible to get everything functioning
correctly? Normally there seems to be problems with getting everything
working (eg peripherals, sleep modes) on standard laptops with Linux. As
these laptops are build to work with a Linux based distro already my
thinking is that this shouldn't be a problem.
