Which distro for android development could you suggest to try, other than Ubuntu?
Will Arch, Slackware, Backtrack, Mint, Fedora work?
I'm using Backtrack, but just in case of tools included, its based on ubuntu too but this one isn't best for everyday use.
I have Mint on CD, Ubuntu via Wubi, Arch via VirtualBox, and just downloaded Slack, now waiting for new Fedora too and I'm cofused of all of this distroch, which would be good for everyday use to switch from Windows7.
I used Fedora 12 on old PC and I had problems with drivers, where Ubuntu was just fine.
Ubuntu now has Unity which I hate, thats the main reason why I want change.
Arch, I've installed it just on VirtualBox as I can't describe myself as complete Linux expert, nor beginner (I dont want to mess up partitions) but its working pretty fast and need a lot of time to set it up, but everyone tells its nice and I can't feel really why its better than another distros, most linux are the same but Pacman here is nice tool.
I've used Mint but there most confusing problem for me is that it's based on Ubuntu so its 2nd remake (mean Debian>Ubuntu>Mint), which can be unstable, because first Ubuntu days wasn't best and its young distro and I don't want to switch in a month to another distro due to unstability or errors but I really enjoyed using it.
Well, since you said other than Ubuntu, I'll have to recommend Fedora.
Oh I forgot that if other GUI is viable for development I can also switch to Kubuntu or other KDE/LXDE/XFCE desktop distro - I hate Unity the most in Ubuntu.
Is posibble to emulate Linux on android, then install wine on it and run Windows programs?
it need a very good hardware on phone
AFAIK, WINE does not emulate the x86 CPU but only the Windows OS. So the Android systems that can run that should be very limited ;-)
Installed Ubuntu via VM virtualbox.However during installation it seems Ubuntu is not recognizing my OS to work along with.How can I get it to?
How to run Ubuntu on my android device.
Hello, I am looking to install an OS on my HP Touchpad but I'm thinking of possibly Linux desktop OS. I have seen Ubuntu run on it but I would like to know if anyone has been able to get Arch Linux (Created within the past few years) to run and working properly? If Arch Linux is not an option I will take any Linux OS that will run on it.
