Installation of software packages
To install/uninstall software on the eeepc use one the standard Debian installation tools:
- [:Aptitude] The main package managment tool on Debian.
- [:apt-get] command-line interface.
- [:Synaptic] A nice graphical tool for package managment.
For in depth information about Debian package management see http://people.debian.org/~osamu/pub/getwiki/html/ch03.en.html
Software suited for the Eee PC

So we list here some software users have found particularly well suited to the Eee. For a broader overview of available Debian software, here are a few links:
