I would like to know that, too. Thought about something like that. Slackware on a tablet would be really fun.

I will probubly be putting Fedora on it, this thread I found seemed rather positive:

Good News!

I recieved the Tablet today and tried booting up Fedora 14 from USB, successfull flawless boot and touch screen works (however there are issues with it being overly-sensitive with the touch screen but currently thats minor).

I am however having issues with the wireless (It's a 3DSP W23104), starting a new thread to deal with it...other then that everything looks good.

I'm not entirely sure the things a "true tablet" and think it's more of a mini-laptop without the keyboard..

Some really dodgy looking Chinese boot loaders stuff on it though so will def be booting Linux, I definatly recommend anyone else thinking about doing something like this to go for it..
