Introduction
This document is intended to provide some information to set up a running Linux box on a WinBook XP5. Knowledge about Linux is required. It will only cover specific XP5 problems.
DISCLAIMER: It is by no means complete and only reflects my personal experience. Nevertheless information on how to make X-Windows running on the LCD is discussed. Note: This page has nothing to do with the WinBook Corporation and no warranty is given about the correctness.

I rely on the information I received from Celia Clause
