I have an HP Mini 311-1000.  Vertical edge scrolling does not work
with 11.04.  It did work with 10.04 and 10.10.

Otherwise, it works fine with 11.04.

I don't remember if the installer asks you whether you want to encrypt
the whole harddrive the way it does for ubuntu server.  I opt to
encrypt my /home dir with ecryptfs during the install process.
