ASUS Eee PC [MERGED]

[Jun aka Pekto]

Agh... Wine just looks too complicated...

Oh well... all I really want to do is have the ability to run GIMP... I still have a full-sized laptop for everything else.

GIMP originated in Linux. It shouldn't be a problem at all. I assume you have Windows on your regular lappie. There's a Windows version of GIMP that's floating around the web if you want it on your regular lappie. But if you have Linux on the Eee PC, just install the Linux version of GIMP. Well, that and whatever dependencies are required such as GtK and others if it's not part of the OS.

Again, personally...... I'd buy CrossOver Linux if I bought an Eee PC. It's creators deserve compensation for making WINE much easier to use.
