    I recently installed Fedora 10 following Jorge Fbarr's page.( on ext2 with no swap )
    Works pretty well , but still a bit slow.
    The strange thing is that I feel the system more responsive while downloading something with firefox ( at 70 ko/s )
    Accesses to the disk are instant , no freeze at all.
    Do you experiment the same thing ?
    Is there some kind of powersaving somewhere ? any idea ?
    Thanks for ideas to test , I would like to have the same fluidity all the time without downloading :roll:

    This has nothing to do with SSD but it might be related to the symptom you noticed. Jorge's blog page (http://jorge.fbarr.net/2008/11/10/fedor ... spire-one/) says how to make the Aspire One refrain from slowing to half speed (800mhz) when it is idle. Search for the word "cpuspeed". I have not tried it myself.
