Is this possible? can it be done on our tabs yet? I figured I wanted to play eve, and run wine on it.
Uhm, I've googled this for a bit, found no answers,saw some transofrmer posts about hoping it would happen.
Any Idea? I would <3 you.
Thanks!
checkout tabuntu in the development section. haven't tried it but tried the previous ubuntu iteration for the tab.

Is it possible? I heard someone was working on porting it to tegra, but that's when it first came out...
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
its ported to a few tegra2 devices, i played with the idea but didnt have time lately, would have to see if we could use the source code of the moto/cm7 kernel to start off or if it needs a newer kernel. it would however be great to have meego on it (just played with the n9 today and omg the interface is so smooth and lagless - havent seen a phone performing as good ever). you can check a bit here http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/TEGRA2
nvidia released some drivers for tegra2 and meego
hey samcripp i was talking to the meego/mer guys today and they said it shouldnt be too ahrd to port, but it would be nice to have a dualboot/or have the phone boot from external sdcard, at that point akizakian told me you told him its possible, would oyu mind sharing how? thanks man.
Why no dev doing this?
Why don't you do it yourself?
You make it sound as if being a developer is a job.
I'm getting an Atrix soon (despite being a Tmobile customer) And would love to know if there is any support for this? Also are there any ports of other OS's or no?
Very few would be capable of such feat...

Meego is a dead platform.

But its source code is still out there...
Besides, it can be dead, but it's still great. We all know it is...

Well mer/plasma is its fully open source derivative. A guy has put it on tegra 2 tablets ages ago, tsdtest and I tried to get something to boot on the atrix but with no debugging possible on kernel level before boot we gave up...
yeah, we did a bit of experimenting a while back but never got it to boot. If anyone wants to give it a shot again please stop by the irc channel sometime (#moto-atrix on freenode) i'd love to give some help if i can, and i'm sure crnkoj would be happy to as well.
Also, the guys on #mer were helpful at the time.
The help of a kernel expert would also be very welcome.
As tsdtest said. I think the guy who ported it to the tabs has the nick vgrade1
Ye bouncing ideas on #moto-atrix is always welcome.
Edit tsdedst
Haven't been reading the forums lately, so I don't know if somebody's already working on this, but I want to port over ics android 4.0 to the nook tablet. I need one tester, but not for a little while, mainly because I don't even own the tablet.
The tester is going to have to be there when I need him and be able to report bugs, logcat, etc.
This is my first attempt at developing, so expect things to be slow
Also, if some of the devs are willing to help when I need it, that would be amazing
This is not a guarantee that you will get ics. But its a hope
I would love to be your tester, and yes some guys are already working on CM 9. They even wanna get the 3.2 kernel working...

can't we just use the 3.x kernel?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1440438 has the latest progress from ics porting (plus the 3.x kernel thread you posted).
Yeah, both the CM7 and CM9 development here are pretty closed...CM7 insists they want a polished product before release and CM9 is going above and beyond with their kernel work, but I know for a fact that they had it 90% a few weeks ago, so I don't know why the news is slow in coming.
I'd gladly help you if you need some work, I not only have a NT but I have an 8-core machine for compiling, I'd be more than happy to build from your github as well.
Hmm... Well if they're that close to being done.. :/
But, the only thing stopping me is having the proprietary libs, which I can't get without the NT.
Anything we can provide you with?

Not unless you are building alongside with me.

I can't help you now, but here is some tips.
Use Clockwork Recovery, you can restore and backup and install
Use some drivers from Kindle Fire Android 4.0 Firmware, not too many though.
Rest of the options should be Nook Tablet-based. You might be able to use some Nook Color drivers, but I highly doubt it.

They have released a version specifically for android and our device seems to qualify in hardware . Has anybody tried this out?
I don't believe it's available just yet. Although, i do think there might already be a way to run Ubuntu on the Gtab. Not sure, though.

Has anyone tried using the install instructions as a guide for installing Ubuntu on the nexus 10? If so, how much work will it take to get a bootable Ubuntu on our device? Ubuntu definitely supports our CPU, as it is on a Samsung chromebook that has the same processor. Sorry to junk up the forums, but I'd really like some info on the possibility of this happening.
EDIT: they also share the same quad core GPU. I really don't see why Ubuntu won't run on this out of the box...

I believe there are a few devs looking into it at the moment. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2012294
I've seen this. It seems no one has updated in a while, so I was assuming it was forgotten.
I was also thinking maybe chrubuntu would be the logical place to start, because that is an alpha that is working already on the chromebook.

Ubuntu phone ROMs are available for Nexus devices, and from what little I've read, if you can install CM10 you can install Ubuntu. I know we have some CM10 projects, but is anyone interested in trying to get Ubuntu phone to run on a Player?

It is definitely possible however it hasn't been fully released yet, it would be quite difficult to port it at this stage.

If you find it simple then you port it. I don't find it simple.

Just to give you guys a heads up.
The Ubuntu touch Dev preview is just a preview. Hardly anything works and it's just not made to be used right now. So I don't think the D's devs would waste their time on this.

Yeah, I noticed that when I went back to the site for a closer look. Still, glad to see I'm not the only one interested.
