Linux on Toshiba mini nb305-n310

[dg91]

Ok till now I installed like 8-9 linux distros on this netbook and every one of them have so many problems....(wifi dont work, suspend dont work, screen wont wake up from suspend, gestures on touchpad dont work like 2 finger scroll...etc)...

I managed to fix some of them but...some like wifi and touchpad just cant get to work...

so my question: have anybody found some ubuntu version that most of the things will work on this specific netbook (toshiba nb305-n310)?

I found on some forum that ubuntu 9.10 get along pretty good with this netbook so if anyone tryed some version of ubuntu that something will work I would really appreciate it.

If not ubuntu then maybe someone found some other linux distro that work with this netbook so really ....if you can help me in any way pls ...thx
