    What Linux for touchscreen?

    I have just bought a tablet and i am looking for the best software suite to use with it. currently it dual boots between Windows 7 and a Meego version made by Wetab (tablet manufacturer). it works great but is heavily German orientated, as a result 90% of the apps are worthless for me. Most of the community is German as well so not much good to me!

    Can anyone recommend any good Linux distros that work well with a touchscreen? On screen keyboard, chunky buttons etc etc?

    Cheers guys

    Keep your eye on this

    Android 4.0 would be great for your tablet. Also try "Lenovo Simpletap" for the Windows side, you should be able to install it even though its for Lenovo laptops, but its a really great app

    Tried the lenovo software but it wont let me, it says only for select lenovo PCs! .

    Windows 7 software packages would be equally welcomed!
