Ubuntu aims at providing an easy to use, secure OS for laptops, desktops and servers. Other distributions may have similar or different aims and achieve them to a more or lesser degree. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Picking a Linux distribution cab be a lot like buying a car, they are all generally the same but vary widely in the details. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;A HREF=&quot;http://www.ubuntu.com/&quot; REL=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Ubuntu&lt;/A&gt; is a derivative of &lt;A HREF=&quot;&quot; REL=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Debian&lt;/A&gt;. I disagree with some philosophical decisions made by Debian that resulted in a &lt;A HREF=&quot;http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/debian-security-flaw&quot; REL=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;serious security issue&lt;/A&gt;.

You&#39;re my hero.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;As I recall WiFi functionality was not supported by any of the distributions I used. Linux is a quickly moving target so that could have changed, so it is worth a try. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;2GB is sufficient for a working Linux installation, but I have to wonder if it would support the applications you would want. Luckily you can try before you buy, so to speak. Many Linux distributions, Ubuntu included, have &lt;A HREF=&quot;https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCD&quot; REL=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Live CDs available.&lt;/A&gt; A Live CD lets you run the operating system entirely from the CD and system RAM without changing your hard drive. Data you wish to persist from one session to another can be saved on your memory stick. Once you find a flavor you want to give a more serious try you should be able to install to the memory stick. Does it not also have a Compact Flash, or Secure Digital memory slot? If so you could use that for your operating system.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;One warning: some Linux distributions may offer to mount your Vista drive (mistaking it  for a WinNT/WinXP drive. I wouldn&#39;t recommend that unless you could live with loosing everything on that drive.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;You may have guessed that I no longer have the UX300 to play with. Like many devices around the shop, in my evaluation I made the mistake of making it useful to someone else and off it went.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Good luck, let us know how you make out.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5647857265337128804/2551097778833397113/comments/default/6967857721439094313'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5647857265337128804/2551097778833397113/comments/default/6967857721439094313'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://putorius.blogspot.com/2007/02/linux-on-sony-vaio-ux300cn.html?showComment=1204845120000#c6967857721439094313' title=''/><author><name>nec Timide</name><uri>https://www.blogger.com/profile/03017143602023726206</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='21' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7TZLxQCx-ywZyd7eUuzeic8r2DzuSZvkdo1-cLvUuwa7jalwSliDgc_JNfy3swihVDVSzZpFMo3B7ILgaVGF5kUm5awa37d2B7bejif_AZFqdOSUUplEspJPGuuuJofs/s1600/64081_10152386488955403_398964877_n.jpg'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://putorius.blogspot.com/2007/02/linux-on-sony-vaio-ux300cn.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5647857265337128804.post-2551097778833397113' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5647857265337128804/posts/default/2551097778833397113' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.itemClass" value="pid-607194329"/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.displayTime" value="March 6, 2008 at 11:12 p.m."/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5647857265337128804.post-5063731512324512106</id><published>2008-03-06T20:20:00.000+00:00</published><updated>2008-03-06T20:20:00.000+00:00</updated><title type='text'>I read your notes on running Linux on your Vaio UX...</title><content type='html'>I read your notes on running Linux on your Vaio UX300CN with great interest. I have a VGN-UX300 machine with solid state disk running Vista and am interested in switching it to Linux as Vista is a pig to put it mildly. However, unlike you I am not a computer tech person -- actually I am a writer by profession. I am therefore a little hesitant. A friend suggested that I install a distro (I am considering Ubutu) onto a Memory Stick and boot it from that. The UX seems to integrate Memory Sticks directly as part of its memory. At present I have a 2 GB memory stick but could get a larger one if needed. I have no idea at present how much I would need for a Linux distro.&lt;BR/&gt;    You didn&#39;t mention whether your machine runs WiFi successfully under Linux. I have heard that some people have had problems running WiFi under Linux, and since this is absolutely necessary for me (I work through a wireless network rather than a hard-wired connection), this is a major issue. Can you advise on whether I could expect WiFi to work?&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Thanks,&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Bert Latamore</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5647857265337128804/2551097778833397113/comments/default/5063731512324512106'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5647857265337128804/2551097778833397113/comments/default/5063731512324512106'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://putorius.blogspot.com/2007/02/linux-on-sony-vaio-ux300cn.html?showComment=1204834800000#c5063731512324512106' title=''/><author><name>Unknown</name><uri>https://www.blogger.com/profile/15940605456171533139</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://putorius.blogspot.com/2007/02/linux-on-sony-vaio-ux300cn.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5647857265337128804.post-2551097778833397113' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5647857265337128804/posts/default/2551097778833397113' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.itemClass" value="pid-1160498690"/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.displayTime" value="March 6, 2008 at 8:20 p.m."/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5647857265337128804.post-2657828947946027015</id><published>2007-11-30T04:16:00.000+00:00</published><updated>2007-11-30T04:16:00.000+00:00</updated><title type='text'>That&#39;s great fun.
