Hi, I have an Acer Aspire One netbook running Linux. I am new to Linux, and it totally confuses me. Can someone please give me a step by step guide how to install PB onto my netbook? Thanks!

It is Linpus Linux Lite I believe, and I think that this is based on Fedora7 (?). Sorry, none of this makes any sense to me - I've only ever been exposed to Windows for about 15 years now!

Basically you can use this tutorial on any distribution, since the most important thing - "which packages do I need?" - is explained.
Just use your package manger and make sure that you've got all the repositories you need, especially those with "devel files".
Despite the fact, that I'm sure you can get all the dependencies solved:
whicht CPU is in it?
Netbooks often have strange CPUs, is PB able to run on it?

Thanks guys, I am following the pdf, but in my package manager I can't find "libgtk2.0-dev". Is there another way to find it? The cpu is an Intel Atom.
Thanks for your help!

Search for libgtk or gtk-dev or gtk-devel.
If you can't find it, then you have to edit and update your repositories first.
You can (hopefully) use your package manager or manually edit your sources.lst.
Is it really Fedora-based? Maybe you can fetch their packages then.
