Suspend works with a few config tweaks. That needs a bit of work to properly integrate with Debian's acpi-support package. I haven't yet tried hibernate, but then again I don't have a swap partition to hold the hibernate image so I can make the best use of the small ssd. Video out (VGA) works. For best results (at least on sid, and probably lenny as well,) remove HorizSync and VertRefresh from your /etc/X11/xorg.conf so that X can ask the attached monitor for appropriate values and properly compute the best mode to use. The eeeuser.com forum and wiki have lots of notes about optimal configs for the Eee. Sound works without any modifications to Debian. Suspend works with a few config tweaks.

You must use the kernel 2.6.25 from sid is it still true and I should install other Debian? but sound with EeePC is nt working with my kernel 2.6.24
