My netbook is an ACER AOD257. It has 1.66GHz, 1 GB of RAM and 320 GB HDD.

I am looking for the fastest Linux operative system on my computer. I have tried Lubuntu and I like it, but it is too much "cold" as operative system, then I have put Ubuntu; 12.04 LTS is the better version; is very fast and nice.

Nevertheless, I am facing another problem: my video card one is a half thunderstruck, 8 MB has gone to 128 MB, then inziavo to have problems also with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS because I had all the active effects.

Later I have passed to Ubuntu Mate 12.04, only that it gives me a problem, the audio is not heard... Then what operative System do you advise?

I would want it fast, nicely, lightly and very versatile. Has my friend advised me Ubuntu Studio, what do you think about it?

I would suggest that you try out Xubuntu. Xubuntu is more lightweight than Ubuntu with Unity, but more polished than Lubuntu. If Lubuntu with LXDE worked fine for you (hardware-wise), then Xubuntu with Xfce should, too.

If Xubuntu doesn't suit you, though, then anoter solution could be Enlightenment. Either way, different people have different tastes, so I would suggest that you take a look at What kinds of desktop environments and shells are available? for an overview of the various DEs available. Perhaps a different choice would fit your needs.
