I have been happily using the GNET13001 for about ten months. The freeze
occurs when the cpu runs too slowly.

To make this thing work, you must first make sure that your kernel
actually supports frequency scaling  for the C7. In my case, I had to
recompile the kernel. I do not know if more recent netbook remix kernels
have this built in.

After that, make sure that you have the cpufrequtils package installed
and run:

cpufreq-set --min 700Mhz

I know this is not a great solution. The cpu should be able to scale
through all of its available range. OK. On the other hand, this
transformed my GNET13001 from a paperweight into a useful netbook.
