First off, sorry if I post this in the wrong forum...
I'm looking for a little bit of help, or steering in the correct direction.
I have an Ematic Eglide 2 tablet/ereader with the Android 2.1 OS on it. I would like to upgrade to at least the Android 2.2 OS so that I can use a certain program on it. However, I cannot find any support whatsoever on how to do this.
I run Ubuntu Linux, so its not like I can't handle the task if I get going in the right direction. I'm not too familiar with tablets and their inner hardware setup. It looks as though there must be separate drives or partitions since OS's only recognize it as a USB drive and do not show a root file system.
Any help on where to get started would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi to all!
Recently, I'm trying Android (2.2.2) for Touch Pro thru the haret.exe way and stuff like that.
I am wondering if I can see the total RAM-ROM-SD memory and, first of all, how much less memory has the Android "under" WM6.1: I can't find any docs about how haret.exe works. Maybe I've made some bad searches?
Thanks!
ps: I apologize if I'm in bad section!

Hi
i have recently picked up a pandawill Gpad G10 telechips 8902 arm II based pad to mess around and try to learn some cool stuff (rooting flashing and the like)with save my dhd from being killed when working at the bench in the laboratory..
It shipped with eclair which had its limitations, i have succeeded in rooting the device and flashing a gingerbread rom onto the unit which is much nicer, is is a beta 2 release but largly does what i want but for one problem....
when the pad is plugged into the mains or connected to USB it is fine, you cn use the device as you should be able to, however, when running on battery power, the device if left goes into hibernation mode and will not recover..
whislt i appreciate this is a vague question i am gonna put it out there... is there anything i can do to remedy this problem ?
there are that many different versions of this pad and rebrands it is tough to know which roms will work... i have seen videos of g10's running cyanogen roms but the attempts i have made to install these have bricked the tablet, i have had to format the lot and start again from scratch..
any help humbly and gratefully received

Hey guys. First off I'd like to say that I'm fairly new to all this, so don't be to harsh Anyway. I just installed Android 4.0.3 for the Android Thinkpad, onto my HP Mini 210. It works great, its fast, its awesome. Problem is, the wifi driver. From all the research I've done, I've found out that the linux doesn't natively support the wifi card that the Mini comes with either. So, I went about trying to learn how one would install it in linux. The two links below are to the drivers and the readme for the driver I need to install.
xda forums won't let me post the links... but if you do a quick google search for "802.11 Linux STA driver" it'll be the first one to pop up.
I can't figure out how to install the driver. I feel like I've gotten so close. But my limited knowledge of linux has lead me to a brick wall. Please help me here! Any and all help is greatly appreciated, even if its a link to another forum or site.

Hi guys,
Im really new to android and linux, yet i want to install ubuntu on my device.
I got it as a gift and would like to make it a netbook like.
Anyway, as far as i know i have the latest JB bootloader, unlocked, also i have the hairybean rom, and OCed to 1.7Ghz, I also have TWRP recovery...
Now, i saw this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1603921k i understood that it installs ubuntu on my device completely, without any need of VNC.
Yet the thread is a bit outdated i guess, from reading a bit i ubderstood that the sound has been fixed, and they had worked on a whole new kernel to fix everything up...
Now, can please somebody guide me, and give me the newest files (kernel and OS)?
Thanks alot and sorry for being such a noob!!
PS any way to install the OS directly on the SSD, and not on an external SD, also, anyway to remove android (if ubuntu is stable enough?)
Come on people, 90 views and no replies?

Dude you seriously need to chill out. Ubuntu is not officially running yet, It is only out on the Nexus devices and their kernels, file systems, boot loaders, etc... are apples to oranges compared to the prime. It is still in heavy development in trying to make it so it actually runs smooth and dual boots android. The developers in the Ubuntu thread have been busting their ass to make it happen and there are multiple developers working together to get to happen. There are still a whole bunch of bugs that need to be worked out. I have been following the thread from day 1 so you can do the same here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1603921. By saying you are new to linux/ubuntu then I would sit back for a bit and follow the tread before you brick your tablet. Things seem like they are going very well in the thread so sit back and read 60+ pages of posts to catch up and have a coke and a smile.
Is this possible yet because I'm hating the lag im getting while running stock Touchwiz.

you can install windows on a mac.
thats what i used when i did mine. Im sure there is easier ways, however, most of the all in one tools are for windows.
so id suggest using bootcamp to install windows.
