@andrewc513 wow, you mounted a win7 image on an ARM processor? nice… or perhaps you don’t understand that he isn’t accessing a remote box.
VNC!!!
No!!!
I want a fucking native install without even having ubuntu touching android!
YooBonnToo?
hmm I have it running fine on mine but the text is all srewy
Go play outside
@carlosrc007 it’s chroot.
Neat. By the same logic I have Windows 7 on my ThunderBolt!
@alucky0 lol i am!
Why would you use this when the original Xoom browser is 10x faster?
god damn i want this man
youbunto?
makes it a proper ‘Computer’ and thats a good thing. i’ll be happy when i can do everything on ARM/linux with no windows / x86
from Ubuntu on my xoom : ). I didn’t use his Ubuntu.img i created my own it works better.
From my own Ubuntu .img installed on my xoom : )
there is a mobile version of ubuntu you know that would work better with xoom
OpenOffice is so 2010! LibreOffice is the newest thang in fashion in the GNU/Linux enviroment.
It would be cool if you make a vid where you write a program on gedit and compile it with gcc/g++ .That would be awesome!
Okay, for everyone who doesn’t get it. If you can’t boot into the OS itself, you can’t run graphics directly. Therefore, you can run a linux installation over the current OS, and then, because you have no graphics, you run vnc into it so that you can synthesize the display because the installation doesn’t need a screen to send you the graphics. So, you are running ubuntu over android, then asking the ubuntu for the display over vnc because it has no other way to display it.
Wait so are you saying installed Ubuntu, then vnced the installation so you could see it?
what about linux4tegra? is that going anywhere? I hear nvidia is working on it.
@carlosrc007 How can I “get my concept wrong” if it is how it works? Did Thomas Edison “get the concept wrong” by inventing the incandescent lightbulb the way he did? OK, maybe his incandescent lightbulb wasn’t the most efficient way of doing it (e.g. cfl’s) but it got the job done, and it was the “right” way.
So if you do not understand how it works or how to do it… you could just read the first two paragraphs of my instructions where I explain how it works. Or you could just not comment.
@ApemanGate dude if i knew how to do it i would of wrote the steps, your lecturing me on shit I wasnt even arguing about. What Im trying to say is that you got your concept wrong. Im sure im not the only one with the same point of view as I saw in many of the comments.
@carlosrc007 Ubuntu is installed on the device, but it has no way to display the screen, so I had to apt-get install tightvncserver so that you had an interface to interact with it. You could just use a Terminal Emulator or adb shell.
And you don’t run anything off VNC… VNC is a protocol which transmits images at “fast” speeds to a client and send client input to a server which replicates it on the host device. So that whole sentence you said was wrong.
So how would this not be “real”?
@ApemanGate LoL man its an inside joke about the noobuntu. Its cause what everyone starts with when your new to linux. Oh and your still running off ubuntu off VNC, doesnt matter if your connected or not. Real example scenario would be running windows 95 on a PSP, or puppylinux or fedora off a PS3
