Well, I have the buy a new laptop and I would like to install linux on it.

At the moment I am working with a Samsung R40 ( big, heavy, not even 5 Min. running on battery ...)

Is there anybody out there already having a

asus Eee PC 1201HA

or a

acer Aspire One 752

running on linux ( best would be fedora but I am flexible if its a Linux )

I am just wondering if everything would work find.
Found some pages from fedora from which i learned that somethimes wlan could be a problem. Is that correct ?

I'm on a eee 900a and I've had good luck with 'buntu's. Running eeebuntu on the ssd: flash, streaming, wlan all work fine, vga out works well for OO presentation. Took a little digging to make it all work though. Scripts on the forums etc.

Bootable SD with straight Ubuntu works, haven't tried to install flash as I just needed it for kernel compatibility with some microcontroller hardware. Most hotkeys work, picks up the battery, I can scale processor. However, I have to enable Wlan in bios everytime before I boot. This is easily fixable but I haven't bothered.
