I can with no problem recommend Asus EEE 1000H. No problem setting up.
Didn't even have to add any repos.

What i have not tried is bluetooth and using and external monitor. What
i tried once and do not work (but i do not use it, so it does not bother
me) is turning wifi on/off with the fn key.

Plus it is wonderful to use i think, as long as you have an external
mouse. The touchpad is dreadful. Also have to add that the keyboard is
wonderful, and barely make any noise.
