Well, I am fascinated by the stuff that’s coming down the pipeline. I have been playing with the moblin stuff ( www.moblin.org ). I really think that this is the direction mobile devices should be going.
Now, the extent of my knowledge in the Unix/Linux world is mostly command line based and server knowledge. I am fairly new to display managers and how they work. I downloaded a base gutsy distribution to play with the Ubuntu Mobile stuff and am anxious to play with this interface.
I have gotten the image creator to work and have seen the mobile-ubuntu stuff working in gutsy but in a window. I would really like to put it as the native or default desktop on my UX280P. From what I have read through my google’s, this is a possibility.
I will continue my search and once I learn how it is done, I will post a ‘How I did it’ here.
The search begins!
PS If any of you know if there is a Howto out there already, let me know.
I'll be searching too

I’ve been doing the same thing and have had little luck, I did get close when I logged a matchbox session and tried to start the various hildon features, but the session crashed. I think that a script to start the needed hildon features and kill the unneeded matchbox stuff would do it. I’ll keep looking and bookmark this blog

good luck. I’d be interested to know what solution you come up with, as I would like to make my 280p a dual boot system.
