I can't help with the Linux problem, but I can tell you this: Second Life will probably be pretty much useless on your netbook. SL is very graphics-intensive. On my desktop with a core2 2.13GHz, 2GB RAM, and an nVidia 8600 GTS 256MB, it's laggy as hell sometimes. The integrated vid on your netbook, and relatively underpowered CPU will probably make SL look like a slide-show, if it plays at all. You can try it, hell, I would! But don't expect much. Best of luck.
