I had a similar problem with an AAO.   That one was the 9" with the 8Gig SSD
and two SD card slots.   Both worked fine in Jaunty, one of them stopped
working in karmic.

I ended up passing that machine on to a guy in Jamaica -- see here for a
story of awesomeness from the Ubuntu community:

I replaced that machine with the 11.6" ZA3 machine.   It is a great little
machine, but the poulsbo graphics chip is poorly supported:

While I'm here, can I put in for Ubuntu hour in Ottawa:

It has been going 3 months, but we're thinking of renaming it "me and George
get together for a beer", so it would be great to see some others there.
