I've been playing around with an eeePC 900, which is very well-supported by debian. Kudos to the eeepc team!
I had one problem with it, after upgrading
eeepc-acpi-scripts
from version 1.0.4 to 1.0.9: with 1.0.4, i was able to use an ACPI
hotkey to disable and re-enable the wireless. With 1.0.9, the device did
not come back up for me after a toggle. The problem was resolved for me
with:
echo pciehp >> /etc/modules
which i figured out from reading a brief
post
on the very-informative debian-eeepc-devel mailing
list.
The rest of this post explores why that was the answer for me.
