I installed a flavor or ArchLinux (Manjaro, cos I'm lazy) and 
could get things to work (including the touchscreen) fairly 
easily. It took less time than trying to fix all the problems I 
had with Ubuntu ("low graphics mode", touch screen etc.), and the 
documentation is really really good. What they say works, unlike 
askubuntu* that gives you 1,000 answers that don't work, and you 
end up having changed 1,000 things more or less randomly. I'm 
beginning to like ArchLinux, it gives me freedom and control over 
my own computer.

(*What really annoys, now that I have made the switch, is that on 
askubuntu it often seems as if it's the vendor's fault, if the 
hardware doesn't work properly with Ubuntu. However, with 
ArchLinux my hardware works very well. Hm.)
