To use chinese input method on defaut eeePC GNU/Linux Xandros, you have to edit :
/etc/apt/sources.list
with kedit or other vi
remove # (comments) on the following line (on 701) or add it (on 900/901) :

deb http://xnv4.xandros.com/xs2.0/upkg-srv2 etch main contrib non-free

save the file

get & install the xandros repository key by :
wget http://xnv4.xandros.com/xs2.0/pkg/pool/main/xandros/xandros-archive-keyring_1.0-3_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i xandros-archive-keyring_1.0-3_all.deb

tehn update and install piying methode :
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install scim-pinyin

This is a (very) smart pinyin input method.

What’s a pitty this is not in default asus package (for a Taiwanese builder, that’s strange to don’t support anymore chinese input method ???).
Looks like on eeepc900 the older and less powerfull gcin replaced scim :(.
