Ubuntu 11.04 for netbooks on Dell Inspiron Duo

[Angie T. Muhammad]

e7m e7m, thanks for letting me know about the latest bugs / features in
11.04 :D ..

My question is leaning more towards being tablet / touchscreen friendly. I
am sorry I didn't make myself clear at first. To be more generic, has any
one used any version of Ubuntu on a touchscreen ? If so, what were the
issues you encountered ?

Thanks
