In some market, Asus EeePC 1225C comes with Ubuntu preloaded. See Asus site - http://www.asus.com/Eee/Eee_PC/Eee_PC_1225C/

In India it comes with DOS, I installed Ubuntu 12.04 on it and it has issues with display and track-pad. Any idea which Ubuntu image is used and can be made available to install on 1225C?

    You'll need to contact Asus and ask. I suspect they may have added a third party driver or two. – mikewhatever Jul 05 '12 at 08:42

  • @Matcha: I own a Acer D270 which also has intel gma 3600 and I can't play mp4 videos in it. The reason I believe is the support for gma600 in linux. I asked a similar question. – RanRag Jul 05 '12 at 10:19

  • In this case, how does ASUS manage to sell devices with Ubuntu preinstalled on this hardware? – sumitgouthaman Aug 08 '12 at 04:38

I asked asus support about this Ubuntu and they said it was specially modified, but they don't want to share their distro.
