Puppeee comes with a custom ultralight preemptive kernel optimized specifically for EeePcs with Atom or Celeron processors - the result is fast boot time, high performance, and low power usage. I have 5 EeePCs and test Puppeee thoroughly to ensure quality.
Puppeee should work on EeePCs with Intel GMA900, GMA950, and GMA3150 graphics cards. Puppeee also has unaccelerated support for the GMA500. I've now added the Nouveau drivers for Nvidia so let me know if these work.
