Ubuntu is the best. Asus G1S works well with Ubuntu!
I have also configured AsusOled in Ubuntu

If you don't believe me here is proof!
I have included a picture

I have done DualBoot - Vista and Ubuntu. I need Vista for Webcam, cause Webcam is upside down in Ubuntu. Ubuntu I can use for fun All you need is a 160 GB hard rive and you are set
I just love Grub, the Grub themes look so beautiful and the splash screen logo as well

I am kinda new I have tried long ago on my old laptop. My old laptop didn't do to well!
You should always install Both systems on Internal disk. I didn't have enough space long ago. All you need is 160GB, 120 GB isn't enough. If I could take a screenie of grub I would.

Yeah, Ubuntu is kinda cool.

I prefer a more hands-on distro (Gentoo), but that's only because I like to have complete control.

Anyway, grats on your installation! Have fun with it and be sure you setup Compiz-Fusion for some really cool effects!

Ubuntu is dull out of the Box, but compiz definitely adds a lot.
