Hello, my TouchPad has Ubuntu Chroot but I can't manage to install the Android SDK to be able to program on eclipse in my TouchPad, is it possible ? I believe Chroot lacks the ubuntu installer or something

It is still a _very_ slow computer compared with your PC. Why not do the compiling on your PC and remotely login from your touchpad (if you really like to use touchpad with bluetooth keyboard as a termninal)?

I wouldn't say very slow, with emphasis. My secondary craptop only has a 1.73 Ghz 1st gen dual core Intel processor w/ a 5 year old video card. I think the Touchpad could def. give it a run for its money. Very slow, with emphasis, to me is a Pentium 4 @ 2 Ghz or less and a GeForce 2 MX.

Not a fair comparison at all. Just because an ARM processor and the comparable x86 processor may have the same clock speed, it doesn't mean that they'll compete. The x86 architecture has been much more widely accepted and hence developed over the years. An x86 will beat out an ARM processor clock for clock until there's more development done for ARM.
Are you making sure to use a version of the android sdk that is compiled against ARM? Some of it is java, but there are some compiled native libraries too.
Eclipse is not the fastest IDE even on a PC. I mean my netbook runs it pretty sluggest and it's a higher end atom (2 cores). I think much more than vim or emacs would start to annoy me.

Should be fine with the 4 gigs of ram, use ccache some decent swap, and you might need to shrink the java emulator size, also be sure to use 64 bit ics+
Here is a commit to help with the java emulator while building

How about 2 gigs of ram ?? Will it work? Thanks in advance.

It might work. But very less chance of working in machines less than 4gigs of ram. 4gigs of ram would be the minimum configuration.

I can go up to 8 gigs on this box. You think it would be worth throwing another 4gig stick in?

It's always worth maxing your memory you'll notice good performance gains and will speed up compile times significantly. 4 GB should be no more then $20-$40 so it's a great upgrade for the money

More RAM?
It should he just about enough to make a ROM, but I think you should install more RAM to your laptop, just in case.
RAM should be fairly easy to install...
Good luck on making your ROM!
2 GB RAM

It should be no problem.

In order to compile ROM's (AOSP from source) and kernels (From source) you will need to use a UNIX based operating system such as OSX or Linux, personally I would recommend dual booting your laptop with Ubuntu 11.10 to maximize compatibility for compiling ROM's and kernels. For making apps you can use either Linux or Windows, and I would recommend using the IDE Eclipse for Android app development. As far as actually building your hard drive is a little small and could run out of space if you intend on building a bunch of different ROM's and kernels (A full set of AOSP builds is 80+ GB), and with 3 GB of memory compile times, will be pretty slow (For example to compile an AOSP build of Android 4.2 for the Nexus 4 would probably take around 5-8 hours, kernels will take anywhere from 1-2 hours probably) also if your laptop only has a single or dual core processor this will also effect compile times.
O.k. thanks for your reply sir.so could you recommend a Linux computer that I should buy as long as what specs should I get as far as how much memory,hard drive,etc.and out of curiosity what would a computer like this cost me.I want to thank you for your time and expertise. Take care!!!

If your just building kernels and some apps then yes, your laptop should be fine. For kernel development it's important to at least have a solid understanding of C, the Linux Kernel, and embedded development for that I would recommend the following books:
Practical C Programming: 3rd Edition
Understanding the Linux Kernel Third Edition
Embedded Linux Primer: A Practical Real-World Approach (2nd Edition)
As far as book for app building goes make sure you understand Java and XML, I would check out these books:
Professional Android 4 Application Development
Head First Java (3rd Edition)

Same question

I installed the Beta today on an sd card and it booted and runs great. I have a lenovo 510p which rocks nvidia gpus. The alphas had trouble booting, but the beta seems fine. I think they did this by disabling the the nvidia and enabling the intel gpubecause when I ran AnTuTu the gpu score was really low for nvidia gaming gpus.

I have a 960gtx and it's working for me although I don't think it's using video acceleration, or if it is then it seems slow. Played Samurai Vengeance and it played but seemed laggy. Also can't play videos in mxplayer, it just closes.
Any android apps that can actually use the power of nvidia cards? Some 3d games that I thought looked great on phone looked well not so good on the big screen. The old intel integrated does not seem to have any issue running them.
I also have a GTX 960 and it doesnt work. It uses VMware graphics acceleration instead, which are very laggy. I enabled the onboard Intel HD gpu and this makes everything very smooth, including games.

As far as I know, if we want the RemixOS support Nvidia, we should waiting for Linux Kernel 4.6.
Based on http://phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=NVIDIA-Blobs-In-Linux-Firmware Phoronix info. The new Nouveau driver that supported Maxwell will land for linux 4.6 kernel.

huh....are you running RemixOS in vmware?
My Alienware X51 has an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660...which runs RemixOS at my display's native resolution, 1920x1080 using the nouveau flags.
My other PC has an NVIDIA QUADRO K2000 GPU which boots RemixOS fine without any error....without any extra flags at all.
Full HD videos plays without any problem....don't know about youtube and streaming videos as it does not detect my usb wifi dongle.
Most 3D (HD) games runs fine too.
