It’s made for Nautilus (Gnome) so it didn’t work in Mandriva 2009.0. I couldn’t compile the source for some obscure reason (as usual) so I sent them a mail to ask them where I could download the daemon only. Less than 24 hours later, I got the answer:
DropBox daemon Linux 64bit
DropBox daemon Linux 32bit

Dolphin (KDE 4) didn’t require any special config whatsoever, it just worked right away.

I also installed it on my EeePC 901. It also worked but I had to start the process in a shell and leave the shell open to keep the process alive. I’ll have to figure out how to start a process as a service on this little-too-simple linux.

MEC has the perfect travel bag for your EeePC 901.
The EeePC fits perfectly with its soft sleeve and the bag can hold the power adaptor in the front pocket. It really looks like MEC had designed the bag to carry an Eee PC.
