Easy to install on the EEEPC without changing the original xandros :
CRTL ALT T for the terminal
sudo kwrite /etc/apt/sources.list
add the line :
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free
save the file
sudo synaptic
all the programs for debian may be chosen and installed.
I select maxima + wxmaxima, and then apply.
After that, maxima and wxmaxima work very well (in a terminal, i type
wxmaxima).
Best regards
