Hello!
I don't know if there's any kind of support for
touchscreen. My experience in Fedora is with netbooks. And you see,
if you can install or at least boot a Fedora, you will take care of
battery consumption. It is a problem in my portable devices with
Fedora. :-|
I don't understand your point here about battery. Are you saying you
put Fedora on a netbook (over supplied Linux) that you get much shorter
battery life?
I use to fiddle with fstab to stop a lot of background disk activity
(right now I forget the option, and can't find my notes on it).
