There's allot of linux distro's out there
Such as
ubuntu
Fedora
Kde
Backtracker
Linux mint (as of today by distrowatch) is the top one used Linux distros today.
And as there is so many versions out there i wonder what version you use. Or used and which one was the best !
And yes name the version number also! As ubuntu 12.04 or 11.10 etc etc

I use ...
Slackware64 13.37
With Alien Bob's (Eric Hameleer) patches for 32/64 bit compatibility.
Ubuntu Server 11.10 with LXDE/Gnome (On VMware Workstation 8), altrough the interoperability between my Windows and Linux is a little buggy and uncomfortable. I would have used the native Windows subsystem for UNIX applications but it requires manual configuration and compilation for almost every program.
Backtrack 3/5
Jolicloud
and Android
Debian testing on all my desktops
Chrome os and debian Sid dualboot on my chromebook
Tomatousb (Linux firmware, does it count?) On my wifi router.
Openwrt on my tiny server
Debian testing in a chroot on my phone
I'm not sure if android counts because the only thing Linux about it is a modified Linux kernel and (in many rooted roms) busybox
'only' the kernel?
I used Ubuntu back in 2009 for the G1 but haven't used anything since than

Ok here we go
ive been using Linux Longhorn (Windows Longhorn themed Linux)
Linux Mint 10 GNU
Linux Mint 11
Ubuntu 10.04, 10.10 and earlier versions!
backtracker 5 GNU AND KDE Edition!
(some i dont remember name on)
UbuntuMusic edition *correctly name i dont know*
and many more which i dont remember name's on, but i used ubuntu alot and the best looking one was Linux Longhorn, but the best so far, is Ubuntu
with it's friendly desktop (Plasma desktop, as "KDE", as using in ubuntu is also very nice!
i'm using ubuntu 10.10 (its most compatible to compile android without a lot of system modifications),
nothing is tweaked or enabled but the desktop and a console window
in the last years i was using/testing SuSE 9.x-11.x, Redhat Linux 12-15, Debian 3.x, 4.x and Slackware
but was going back to my self compiled Linux "LinuxFromScratch 6" (can be found on http://www.linuxfromscratch.org).
With this project you can learn how linux works, this makes it easier to understand android

Maybe , the only thing is that the tutorial for building ics requires some extract file and we doesn't have that in our phone or repo

I'm using Xubuntu 10.10, so basicly the same as Andy.
Also using this because it's most compatible for building Android
Further I use Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS on my server.
In the past worked with Suse, RedHat, CentOS, Slackware and of course Puppy Linux
Ubuntu 11.10
And you?
Using 12.04 as soon as it isn't alpha anymore

Hello guys, before the question, i am sorry if i am little english. i look some website that running Ubuntu on Android Device.
I am sorry i am new user in this site, so i can't using outside links in this posting, but you will find if you search on google about this.
i have some question about this case:
1. i am using Samsung Galaxy S Wifi 4.0 a.k.a Samsung YP-G1CW/XSE what ubuntu can running on my device?
2. How with OS Windows? what windows can running on my Device? Windows XP may be, or Windows 7..
Please Help me, i need to running other OS on my Android Device.. Thank's Before for your answer
There are two ways to run another OS on your device: chroot and qemu. You can run Ubuntu (or any Linux distribution that supports ARM processors) with little effort using the chroot method. Look up "Ubuntu installer free" in the store and it will walk you through. It may not work on the stock kernel, so make sure you have the kernel from these forums that fits your device.
The only way to run an OS like Windows is by virtualization through qemu, because it doesn't natively support the chip in your Galaxy S Wifi. This method requires a version of qemu compiled for ARM and additional libraries, which I have not gotten to work successfully on this device. (Anyone else?)
So I'd suggest just trying to get Ubuntu running. It won't be very fast or easy to use on a device that small, but it will work.

Thanks Very much for your solution, i will try search, qemu method or chroot methode.. hope i will can do it, because i am new for it. i am not a developer, or programmer. i just want to know more about gad-get
so thanks a lot.
So everyone wants ubuntu on their tf201, myself included. But currently, the only arm platform is on nexus 7, or by vnc. Would it not be easier to try and port an already existing arm based Linux, such as fedora 17 or puppy linux? All we would need would is to have a working kernel, am I correct?

That thread has install instructions for Ubuntu on tf201.
So i been developing actual apps for about 6 months, and want to get into customizing rooms, so i see that alot of you guys use cygwin, a virtual machine or linux and wanted to know if its really worth it running linux natively instead of a vm or cygwin...
if yes, then whats the general opinion on linux vs osx?
I have definitely used all three with good success. If you are RAM limited on your machine, skip the virtual machine option since you need enough RAM to run your base OS and the VM separately. One advantage to running linux natively is that you are forced to think in the linux world, which for an Android behind the curtain point of view is closer to the mentality you need. You might learn some good stuff familiarizing yourself with linux that later applies to your Android exploits!

I'm using win7 with andLinux installed. Unfortunately andLinux is based on Ubuntu 9.04 so I can't use most toolchains built on newer distro because they need newer versions of glibc.
So I'm forced to use CodeSourcery's toolchain which uses it's own glibc.
This thread is just for discussion purpose related to Deploying Linux Distro like Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu or Kali on Motorola Moto E.
Right now, I am trying to deploy Kali Linux using LinuxDeploy Application, but I would love to hear from other users who have already done this, if yes then how and using which app. Please share your experience.
Thank you.
