Made me several hours and was a major pain, but I managed to get HP Mobile Internet Experience (MIE), downloaded from the HP Web site to run on VMware Fusion. All hardware will now work on networking, audio, and monitor / video card. This was especially difficult without the developer tools and kernel sources with the release. Being based on Ubuntu 8.04, I had the most questions correctly, that the source is, but sticking to the stock kernel. This makes a nice stand-alone media player / webBrowser VM. The video is laggy and the VM is running much slower than normal. This is because the screen-capture software has been on the same machine running the VM, so there are a lot of effort. This runs at least 10 times faster alone. HP came with very nice package here. Keep up the good work HP! This is how a mean and lean user interface is not under Linux with some style! Defiantly makes me want to pick up an HP Mini with this operating system. HP HP, we ask that this is a bit friendlier for developers, release –Source so that we can build on this platform!
