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.

i figured that the galaxy S III is a storng quad core device so can it run windows?
Does Microsoft support the phone? CPU, chipset, drivers? If yes then you can.

No, because windows is closed source and xp/7 even has no arm support, but you can run linux (I.e. ubuntu on it).

I'm a passer-by... Just ignore me..
No madness. Even I did Google few months earlier. The answer is big no because MS Os is a closed source. If it wasn't xda developers would be the first hunter.

If you try to compile anything 4.0+ your going to have a bad time. unless you have 4 gig ram, not even GB.

If you are trying to compile, its not going to matter, your specs are too low.

+1 Netbooks are intended for nothing more than browsing the web. To try to make it run some resource-intensive function is askimg for trouble. If even just consider that Windows has to be stripped down just to make it work right, you should realize that you're computer isn't quite up to the job.

I am only compiling kernels on my laptop and it takes at least 15 minutes on my celeron 1.86 GHz and 1 gig RAM. Compiling whole android system on a netbook is very bad idea, it takes a lot of CPU power and Intel Atom is not designed to work on high loads.
Thank you for advices

I know this is an old post, but i have a cheap 11.6inch laptop/netbook that came with 4gb of single channel ddr3 ram and a 320gb hdd, put 8gb of ram and a 480gb sandisk ssd in even though it only has sata 2 and it runs fine
Intel n2840 dual core celeron, 1mb cache. (2.16ghz and 2.58ghz boost)
Very low power it is fanless, acer aspire e3-112.
Compiles cm12.1 fine for my n9005, only takes half an hour
Edit -
I use arch as my primary, but use xubuntu 15.10 to build with. Did have some problems dual booting with grub and uefi but managed to sort it out.
Great cheap setup with really good battery life, 11.6inch 1366x768 screen.
Is there any that we'll see Ubuntu custom roms? Or will i have to buy an Ubuntu Phone in order to experience it?

Chances are quite high that we will. Also IIRC Ubuntu said that they will be making their OS compatible with many popular Android devices, so an official Ubuntu ROM can be flashed instead of an Android ROM.

It's possible to see an Ubuntu ROM.
Also they said that they will release an Emulator & SDK for Ubuntu Phone Development until next week, so there is a big chance to see an official ROM released soon....

Sounds Awesome! A smart move by them would be to somehow make android apps compatible with it cuz it will take them a looooong time to get to the amount of apps android already has (if it ever will)...

Im pretty sure you can get android apps to work in ubuntu if you use multiarch.
Ubuntu OS is meant to run on Android (multi-core devices) only I believe. So if you meet this requirement you will get this They also mentioned that other flavors of linux will be released. (Not supported by Ubuntu however)

If you are satisfied with running Ubuntu in parallel with Android, you can always make an Ubuntu ROM yourself, following my HOWTO in my signature.
Good assumption

i think it will need a couple of weeks untill ubuntu "custom roms" will be portet to non nexus devices, because teh only devices that r officially supportet by ubuntu phone are the nexus 4 and the galaxy nexus.
You should know that Ubuntu Phone needs high resources to run on any devices.
There r few Devs at the moment that know how to port this on any device, and most of this r the devs of Ubuntu itself.
I would not name Ubuntu Phone a custom rom because it's not based on Android => it's a mobile OS based on linux but not on android
The first UbuntuPhones will be selled much later there are no at the moment
Before asking a question check here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2086396
Ask any questions about Ubuntu for phones here! Please don't ask twice and Quote the question you are answering.
Note: do not ask if your device can run, boot, etc . Ubuntu. If you are curious whether you can get it on your device please post it in either the general or questions and answers section of your device. But before you post there please search and see if it has already of been asked. Thanks.
If you are still wondering if this is on your device please contact a developer when it is released to port it to your device.
I have Htc Desire, it will be possible to run Ubuntu on my sweet phone? Or it is possible only for new phones? What is a must have for system? CPU, Ram, storage. Thx for answer.

What's the actual point of having another linux distribution on your phone? Shouldn't it be the same (I'm not talking about few additional features that might be somewhat useful)?

Is like why some ppl prefer Linux Mint or Ubuntu or even Debian if all come from the same way? It's just matter of tastes.
What do I need to do to boot this bad boy on my jewel?
(Will you be copying all the questions and answers and adding them to the first post? )
Will dev devices be available? Will steam be officially supported for mobile?
What I'm curious about is will this support ext3/ext4 filesystems? Support for links?
Also, will there be a repo? Ability to install the gcc toolchain?
I'm curious on how unlock security. Like having a password to unlock or something like that. What would it look like on this OS? Another question I have is what are the keyboard's features?

no you can not install ubuntu on htc desire
the minimum requirements are
1ghz dual core cpu
1gb ram
wvga screen
Can we install it which devices we want, like Ubuntu for PC? Or must developers customize it for all devices like Android?
What is Ubuntu for Phones' minimum system requirements?
And there will be a new release every 6 months like Ubuntu for PC?

Will it support (in the future) the Android app ecosystem?
I really hope so because people like me already purchased a lot of app and I need them (and won't buy them again).
What do you think?
Is this Q&A just aimed at the community or will it have some "official" answers ? If so what mobile networks will be used in the UK on release ?
Dual booting a possibility on the Nexus ?
Secure market for purchasing apps /devices?
Apart from the Nexus , What other devices are you hoping to introduce this year for us to play with ?
How easy/hard will it be to port ROMS to another other device ?
What will you offer us ( apart from a new OS to play with) that's going to steal market share from Android ?
What plans do you have for future updates to the OS ,will it become as fragmented as Android ? Will you push carriers to update ROMs or will it be down to XDA to do this :laugh:
Will you make it easy for us to do our thing or will you lock the devices down (not that it will stop XDA lol)
If any of you are interested in getting Canonicals attention for us, the XDA Family being able to beta for them, here is a petition I started at change.org! It won't hurt to sign it guys, might as well try!

He means that we will see the exact answers after release. So just be patient.
View sonic make the Viewpad 10 pro which is dual OS Android & Windows 7. I don't see why someone wouldn't design an Android / Ubuntu tab.... It would be easier to run and keep up to date.

I guess, it will be also possible to run Ubuntu inside chroot. But instead of vnc we should use native xserver inputs and ouputs (if ubuntu for phones will run xorg, there are rumors that canonical made a new display server).
I got ubuntu running in a setup like this on a SGS2 pretty good (xserver takes touchevents from /dev/input/event2 and draws on framebuffer). But i have some problems with the drivers, touch especially (using multitouch driver because evdev crashes -> can't rotate -> only useable in portrait-mode )
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxats9ejrG0
But because Canonical said Ubuntu can run from an Androidkernel, this problems may be fixed already (for the choosen nexus handset at least)
