It's possible?

Thanks in advance
Are you reffering about linux on your PPC or on your Desktop pc?
If you are refering about Desktop PC, on Ubuntu(Lastest linux compatibile with all windows programs) there is a suport for Palms, you yust need to google for support for Windows Mobile.
On your PPC, i dont know exzacly but I'm sure that you can find a solution somewhere on this Forum. Use Search.
Raki is the Linux replacement for active sync. It's part of the sync-kde suite. If using Ubuntu or another Debian-based distro, use "sudo apt-get install sync-kde". Google "raki linux" for everything else.
This link is for mepis, bit it'll apply to ubuntu, debian, suse etc. too.

Hi all,
I was wondering wy do We need to use a Windows box (virtual or emulated it doesn't meter) to install Our firmware updates (roms) in a linux based system, its kind of a frustration for Me, I use linux for about 7 years and I had to install a virtualbox with WinXP just to update My phone, or am I missing something??
is there an app that runs natively thought linux?
thanks in advance
Hello all.
I search in the forum but I don't find the answer. Maybe no solution or my English is definitively too poor !!!
I have a computer with Linux (Ubuntu 10.10). Every time I want to make a change on my HD2, I have to reboot and launch my Windows session. But I want to definitively ****ch to Ubuntu. So is a solution exist to flash under linux (directly, with wine or with virtual machine like virtualbox).
I want to be able to flash my HD2 to return to WM6.5 or to flash the CWM recovery etc...
Do you have some answers ?
Thanks for attention.
Bye
as of now, the only way to flash rom through linux is using CWM (perhaps you'd need windows for that too).
The reason behind this is that the CustomRUU is only made for windows and not for linux.
Ive had my own tries with virtualisation and qemu but to no avail, CustomRUU needs to establish a direct serial contact with the device which is not possible for any VM in linux as of my knowledge, so the best bet is to get cLK loader, it uses userspace linux for android on nand, so you can flash recovery, rom, boot, kernel using the sdk tools of linux since it supports fastboot. after installing cLK, your phone becomes pretty close to a native linux one with the only drawback being the rom needs some changes to work with cLK but the good news is anyone can do it easily, we only need to repack the supplied kernel in a .img to flash using fastboot.
Thanks for information. I will try cLK and SDK.
hello,
Please, is it There's a way to install Linux or simulate it on Windows phone (like cygwin for Windows)?
Thank you in advance for any answer or idea.
Yes, it is possible but you need Linux kernel compiled for your phone. See in other threads about getting Linux on phones.

Hey guys, i wanted to ask if anyone had managed to install windows or ubuntu images on our Defy with CM7 running on it.
If yes can u help me telling me the steps so i can make it too?
thanks in advance and sorry for my english
i heard that someone run Ubuntu on his phone, but it's very difficult to use it, because of touchscreen interface. I think that running windows is impossible on this phone, except some WP7 mods i would suggest staying on Android
Yep, I have run Ubuntu. It is basically run by mounting an ubuntu image to a loop device mount point. And the GUI is accessed using vnc. Dunno about windows!
You can also try out windows..bt its just windows 95 desktop version..
And pretty easy to achieve
