Hello Everybody,
I have a crucial question about installing Ubuntu in my TF101 B70KAS40: Could be possible to play in www doesnt matter co
This web uses Applets Java for running card games and other weak games, like chess. Currently, I can´t play using any browser under Android.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Thank you very much for the reponse, I'll try dual boot after holidays
I don't have the answer, but try it, you'll have a real os on board
I used to play with open office, better than all the writing apps on the market... (it was before i flash an EOS nightly rom...).
If your tablet is allready rooted, you should give it a try...
Install openJDK and the icetea browser plugin for java and it should run fine. I use my tablet to program my chatroom, which happens to be written in Java.
kenshin, do you mean that it is possible to install openJDK and icedtea ON android ?
or i missed something ?
Where can we find them ??
TY
Not on android, but if you dual boot Ubuntu and install them on Ubuntu they will run on Firefox that comes with Ubuntu.

If you know an easy tuto to dual boot ubuntu, don't hesitate to share
Anyone else thinks the OP just posted this to get traffic to the website?

Hi guys,
I'm looking for a method to get a Linux Distribution like Ubuntu or Debian runnig on my Advent Vega or HTC Desire. Both devices do not support the chroot-command which is required in the tutorials out there because the system is something like virtualized.
There might could be a tutorial that shows me how to fastboot into that Linux on an ext-Partition or somewhere. I hadn't found it yet but you may know it better than me.
Thanks in advantage,

believe theres a tutorial over at modaco on how to get ubuntu on the vega
No it isn't. Just how to completeley install it instead of android. Not like it was possible on the G1 :/
i doubt that's possible we can't even run two roms with backing up and restoring. Your best shot is probably a vm style app
No that works. You are emulating the distribution. that's what you can do with chroot. It worked on the Google G1 aka HTC Dream. I had that and I tried that. But with the Vega it does not because of chroot
not that i know of any
Help yourself

You have an option to use the official recovery mode or you can install CWM.

http://myadventvega.co.uk has the official recovery instructions.
Look here
For anyone still following this thread, I should point out that it's quite possible to run a chrooted vm on the vega. I simply followed the instructions in the thread on MoDaCo on this topic.

(I'm not allowed to post links yet)
I spent a lot of time trying it out, with no success. Then I noticed that one of the error messages in the terminal said something like "busybox - unknown option". So I updated my Busybox to the latest version and then the startup script ran with no problems.

Nice one dude. What sort of interface did u use to interact with the OS? Was it a touch interface or did u use a keyboard and mouse. Also, was it possible you output the screen to a monitor

i am using backtrack 5 chrooted on my vega xwindows and vnc as interface . works fine as far as i can see so far
Hey all. Is it possible to instal linux on the swift? WITHOUT using androidVNC?
Sent from my GT540 using XDA Premium App
Always though android was linux based, can you sum androidVNC up in a few word for us?
As far as i know you can make a dual boot installing debian or ubuntu, but the whole replacement of the firmware i dont know!
that would be awsome when someone makes dual boot to our swift with ubuntu/android , i installed ubuntu , but it needed androidVNC, for graphical use, but without androidVNC , you can use terminal(commands)(without kde,gnome or something)
by the way, is it easy todo dual boot menu for our swift?
i've installed ubuntu on my pc , to start with that

You still expect that? I had this in my mind too but it's just too much of work. I mean modifying the boot loader completely needs a good amount of programming knowledge.
Is anyone here running ubuntu on here vega? I have seen a monster topic at modaco but its difficult to work out exactly how the install is running and a decent howto guide, this forum has always had better write ups so i was hoping someone could help me.
Also, is it possible to dual boot android from the nand and ubuntu from the sdcard? That would really bring my vega to life , especially due to the lack of open office supoort in android at the moment.
Thanks;
Andy
Indeed someone is working on this at modaco. Unfortunately, nvidia has not released updated display drivers making ubuntu and meego very slow. Don't think it's usable right now.
I have looked over the thread at modaco, it is on my list of things to do to work on Ubuntu for the vega based on the work on the modaco thread and the htc-linux site and the stuff I have done on my HD2.
I have only just got my vega and the rushed install I did from the modaco thread didnt work, but I tried something a little funky to get it closer to what I want.
Have you tried the instructions on the first post? One of the modaco members has put up basic bulid which needs to be unzipped to the second partition on the sd card, which needs to be formatted as ext3. Then the boot partition needs to be flashed to boot into ubuntu, there is no workable dual boot options as there is no custom bootloaders.

Shame, i think the best compromise of a tablet setup would be android 3.0 with a shortcut to launch ubuntu from within android. At least then we could actually do some real work on the tablet, sadly android really is lagging too far with office software (and open office support is a joke!)
Ive got a 4g upgraded 32gb Xoom. i saw that it is possible to run linux on the tablet but i had a few questions. i know i have to be rooted (i have a droid x that i rooted) but once i do that, is it still possible to run the android o.s. also? can i choose which to boot in? also how reliable is it on a tablet and is it worth it? Thanks!
You have vastly misunderstood the Linux on Android concept.
You download the Linux image to your tablet. While Android is running, you execute a script that then "boots" the Linux image. You can then access it via terminal or VNC. You aren't natively running Linux.

Other devices do although, xoom has just been left out for some reason

Hi,
Im also interested in linux on xoom, opensuse for example ...
i ve seen backtrack running on xoom but like it was mentioned b4 its only a image or accessed via VNC but whats the point running backtrack linux if network card is not supported....
Any way if you ve heard of any linux concept since just let us know
Surely it must be possible if the advent vega can handle it!

try Linux Installer from the google play store. its a very nice app and free, allows you to setup linux in a chrooted environment. i also have tried the paid ubuntu installer app but not as many options. there is a way to run it outside of android as well, but im not planning on ever doing this, not at least until ubuntu makes a touch tablet input feature

I take it you mean Ubuntu in its direct form like the standard Desktop OS ?
If so there is a arm version of Ubuntu Server 14.04 coming out soon but thats a ARMv8 only. Now heres the catch our Tegra Note 7 is based on a Coretx A15 SOC which is ARMv7.
Now the only version of Ubuntu i know that was ported to ARMv7 was Ubuntu 12.04.
There was a Tegra 2 Version of this which you can read about here : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/TEGRA/AC100
So its possible, however as of yet the only other option would be Ubuntu Touch but thats not a native ubuntu.
thank you
Thanks for the reply and link , ill have a look and see what i can find , if i manage to get anything done ill post back here

Can you make a thread on instructing how to chroot into ubuntu and run ubuntu on TN7? What applications work on it?

Yes i will make a thread , unfortuneatly i have not tested any applications on it as of yet , i should have the thread ready by sometime tomorrow
Did anyone figure out how to do it ?
I can at least vouch that the Tegra 2 version of Ubuntu worked on my Acer A500. If you can live with the basics, it's cool, but the amount of software available for ARM is minimal. It's also very unfriendly to touch, so you'll need a mouse. I personally can't think of anything I was able to do with it that I wasn't already able to do more easily with Android, so eventually I took it off.
