[gentoo-user] services on ASUS 1005HA

[Philip Webb]

With the required driver atl1c in the kernel, my toy Horace had no trouble
logging in to my ISP & actually downloaded a file for an emerge.

Can anyone who uses one of these machine advise me
how far the usual services are relevant for a netbook ?
--  hald (+dbus)  vixie-cron  slocate  run on my desktop machine,
but don't seem necessary for a netbook which I wb using only occasionally;
I have installed  sysklogd , which seems useful in case of problems.

Also, what do people use to monitor the battery ?
And what's best for the webcam ?

Thanks again for the advice so far: I hope my reports are helpful to others.
