That happens to me on almost any game with fixed controls
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wokka00:
I've been playing it on my DX for convenience. The death system is the same as in Zenonia 3, and it isn't a huge problem, although it's a bit annoying. You can get by without paying anything for the game, but I ended up putting a bit down to make my bags bigger. Worthwhile in my mind for a well made game I"ll probably replay at some point.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loveubuntu:
I don't have Windows computers anymore and don't really want to make a dual boot computer ( I will if I have to). Is there a way to make a flash-able PG05IMG type file from a RUU. I think there is a software but is that a Windows software? Any help is appreciated.

Hey ThinkPadders,

So I found myself needing to do some programming on the road this weekend but dont have access to a laptop. So I'm plugging in a bunch of peripherals to my TPT and hoping to work off it. (UPDATE: It worked great! Just ran out of space in my pre-allocated image, see update #2 below) Forgive me if the outcome is a bit rough or this exists elsewhere, I'm in a bit of a rush but thought I'd throw this quickly out to anyone who may find it usefull (or is nice enough to complete it).

There's just a small modification from the Ubuntu on android instructions on AndroLinux. Sorry I cant post links as a crappy member X_x, but I think you know what to do with this:

www.androlinux.com/android-ubuntu-development/how-to-install-ubuntu-on-android/

[YOUTUBE]YbunTRzEQCI[/YOUTUBE]

Change the mount calls in each of the scripts from:

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

to:

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 /system

That's about it. I've installed build essentials just with apt-get and got simple STL c++ to compile, so things seem good so far.

Here are pics of the TPT running vnc and ssh to localhost. I attached modified scripts if you dont want to do it yourself. All credit should go to Max Lee at AndroLinux and Charan Singh.

(And a hurrah for getting our kernel source!!)

UPDATE #1 (2-27-2012):

Terminal/ssh usages are great, but experiences with the stock ubuntu GUI are a little slow (probably due to the lack of tegra drivers on tested distributions). You can improve this GREATLY by using a lighter weight windows manager (lxde, xfce, unity 2d, etc).

UPDATE #2 (2-28-2012):

Also, you can skip using an image entirely. Since then I've partitioned a 32GB sdcard into 10GB fat32 + 22GB ext2 partitions and just directly copied a preinstalled/debootstrap'ed ubuntu and mounted it. This way you don't have to pre-allocate space with an image and can use both partitions for general storage (the fat32 is just for windows specific access). You could probably use space on the internal sdcard if you like. But I have a 16GB model so I went straight for an external solution.

I can extend this guide or create a one-click windows script to handle the entire setup/installation if there's interest.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] jhankinson:
This is really cool, thanks for sharing this info with the rest of us.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] knich:
Thanks! I run Ubuntu on all my computers, now I can run it on my TPT!
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] hidd3n_bit:
Cool stuff anapmac.

I too have an ubuntu chroot on my thinkpad (actually just copied the loop file from my droid x and didn't even have to change any settings)

Just a tip: I highly recommend swapping out the default window manager for lxde.

lxde is much more lightwight and will run a lot faster.

Also, you may want to try pointing apt at the debian repositories, debian seems to have more complete ARM repositories than ubuntu does.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] splotz:
How about libre office. Could it run in an usable speed on ubuntu on android, or would it do it if ubuntu only could get installed?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] danjac:
Hey,

could anyone help me...i managed to do all and it finally worked.

but i don't think it is quite useable, so what d0 I have to do to make all steps undone?

thanks for your help.

[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] baser5nature:
thanks for posting the changes required to get this working. I got it working with the ubuntu.img from the guide at androlinux.com

I've used the instructions there also to build an image of from ubuntu 11.10. I simply replaced the ubuntu.img with my own and all is working ok. I'm currently installing unity to see how slow it will be. or if it works at all.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Anapmac:
Thanks for the tip. I did find loading firefox somewhat slow when I took the screenshots. This past weekend though I was only accessing the distribution through a terminal emulator (just ran the bootubuntu script to setup the chroot). After working with it, I'm very satisfied with this setup :) I'm planning to buy an external SD to use host a large ubuntu image (or anything else that's ARM compatible?). Maybe I'll look into the GUI if I get a chance.

There's also a native ubuntu setup on some android devices. That would be interesting to see how well the GUI performs when android isn't running next to it. Luckily for me, the terminal is perfect since I use vim :D

Hey danjac,

when you exit out of the shell that bootubuntu launches, it unmounts the required loopback and folders for you. The setup script, ubuntu.sh, simply copies a few files into known locations (deleting any existing files from previous runs). These files are:

/system/bin/fsrw

/system/bin/bootubuntu

/system/bin/unionfs

/system/bin/mountonly

You can just delete these by hand. Otherwise, I've attached a shortened version of the setup script (now only contains the clean-up and not the file copies) that does just this. Besides those files you just need to delete your ubuntu image file. Also, I dont believe the mounts (calls to losetup and mount) persist through reboots. Someone please correct me on that if I'm wrong. But if true, you wont have anything ubuntu related running if you've done a simple reboot lately. It is probably best to reboot before running this script. FYI, the script is run from the TPT's terminal (either using a terminal app or adb).
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Anapmac:
Cool. Let me know how it goes. I'm curious how well we can get an ubuntu GUI to run under chroot. I really like the integration it gives. Though we're probably running on software rendering no matter what UI we use. Nvidia released linux tegra drivers for hardware acceleration:

(H)ttp://developer.nvidia.com/linux-tegra

(curse you linking!!! still too forum newb for this)

hopefully I (or anyone ;)) can get time to mess around with this.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] danjac:
Hey Anapmac,

thank you very much for the information/script.

You are right, it does not survive a reboot.

Once again, thanks for your help.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] MindlessLeadership:
I'm going to give this a go, looks really cool.

Canonical have just announced Ubuntu for Android which looks pretty amazing.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] splotz:
Oh, yes.

http://www.pcworld.com/businesscent...tu_android_addon_designed_to_replace_pcs.html

Cant wait until having really time to try it......
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Anapmac:
Yea, my dreams are coming true! I hope they're not picky about using the dock though. I'd still rather just open up a local terminal and work from there (for those of you who keep line widths in code, the character width can perfectly be 80 in portrait mode using android terminal emulator :D). Should work anyway though, seems like a chroot solution with dock integration. Either way, that makes for an AWESOME thin client to access any workstations. Add that to having a mobile data plan, who needs to be in the office! Love being able to fiddle with these devices so much.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] baser5nature:
I wasn't able to get unity to work, I'm really not that strong in linux though. Based on things I've read around other linux forums, it's not likely to get it to work, but luckily canonical is taking care of that for us.

I tried gnome-classic and it worked ok, I wouldn't call it unusable, tried ubuntu-2d and 3d and they just don't work, finally settled with xfce after installing xubuntu-desktop via apt-get and then messing with the xstartup in /root/.vnc to start xfce with vnc.

vncserver -geometry 1280x752 fits perfectly in the screen space available without hiding the honeycomb status bar.

Although android vnc works quite well for free. I grabbed Jump Desktop back when it was on sale, and the mouse integration feels more like a native install.

I've been using Terminal Emulator in android to edit files and things with my folio keyboard, but there are a few annoying things with that. the vol-dwn button as Ctrl only works with onscreen keyboards, so I have to take the thinkpad out of the folio keyboard for certain keystrokes in apps like vi and nano. Funny enough the enter key on my onscreen keyboards, isn't accepted when saving a file with nano. I have to return to the folio keyboard to hit enter... wierd.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Anapmac:
Thanks for checking on that baser.

I've been plugging in a full keyboard whenever I wanted to code, so I'm not sure what issues come from using the folio. I did experience some funky keyboard (hardware) mappings when I was using the GUI though. I'd have to do some remappings of the keyboard keys to get it 100% working, I figure we could probably do the same for the folio. For instance, my caps lock key is normally mapped to ctrl. If the folio has one it may be a good solution (I've never really seen one and I'm assuming it doesnt have a ctrl or alt from your experiences).

As for the GUI responsiveness, I tried using a ubuntu image which was compiled with the nvidia tegra drivers (see Linux for Tegra for details, but dont try their test image). It FELT more responsive to me, but I didnt get a chance to run solid benchmarks on my different distributions though. My experience using the ubuntu GUI on the TPT is pretty slim, so I could be completely wrong on that visible speedup.

I got a hold of a nice big 32GB sd card over the weekend, so I plan to put a large ubuntu/debian distribution on it this weekend. I'll try to get some updates on the keyboard issues and tegra drivers around then.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Anapmac:
Check it out, there are tegra drivers in the next ubuntu arm release :D

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/armel/nvidia-tegra

It's to be released in april. I'm sure this has to do with canonical's android announcement. Sweet! I'm curious, so I may look into setting up a 12.04 distro this weekend to see if there's a noticeable speed up.

So, I definitely understand the desktop usage awesomeness. But I'm still not sure what android (mobile) gains from getting an ubuntu GUI. It seems all the added benefit comes from the command line tools, where android apps can cover any graphical needs. Thoughts?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] lfwake08:
One-click?

A one-click script would be awesome! I know there's others who would appreciate it as well, I'm just gona take one for the n00b team and ask for it. No rush, if you have time it'd be great but either way thanks for your work!

[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] ChiefOHara:
Hey guys!

Since the ubuntu touch preview came out yesterday, I thought I'll give this thread a bump. What do you guys think about it? Can we port this to our good old TPT? I just stumbled over the Porting howto: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting

I mean, thanks to Koshu, we have CM10 running, so porting should work? But I have to admit that I don't have a lot of experience with this kind of stuff
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] taeuschkoerper:
This would realy be very cool.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] kalamar:
I have played a little with Ubuntu touch and so far I have one bad and one good news. The good news is, that I was able to compile, flash and run Ubuntu and the bad is except shell nothing else works :crying: . I used Koshu's kernel for cyanogenmod 10 but Ubuntu requires version 10.1 (Android 4.2) so that is probably the main problem but I am no expert at porting.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] ChiefOHara:
ok, I thought that this might be a problem. but thanks for trying!

I'm wanting to get a stock ROM (like completely stock, odexed and everything since all the stock based ROMs are deodexed) but I don't know how to do it without screwing around with crap.

What would happen if I renamed the ROM.zip to PG32IMG.zip and flashed via bootloader? Would it screw me over?? I s-off'd via revolutionary, so xtc clip'd people (andybones) didn't know what to tell me since its permanent and you don't have to worry about it. Any help is much appreciated.

I'm not the developer of this rom, I only post it here

the base is MIUI AU 4

So, it has all the "+" from MIUI AU and has some improvements, like NMR Settings, NMR kernel, AROMA installer, etc...

WHAT's THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MIUI_AU:

in kernel: change governors for newest, next i add some stuffs for battery and network..and optimizations in config and compiller

in rom:

-remake all scripts and add some tweaks like: defraging db, zipalignApks, tweaks for network, CPU and GPU, changing some libraries for correct work of db

-adding NMR Settings: for tweak all rom

-make multilang 4way reboot

-and some other

REQUIREMENTS:

Requires an ext3/4 partition to be the second partition on your SD Card

Only stock HBOOT/CM7-r2

Default language is Russian

So, here is the ROM

updated version: NMR4_alpha4

changelog:

* updated MIUI to 2.2.24 (MIUI-AU)

* updated NMR kernel (more smoothness) (thx drewis)

* some fixes on scripts

* added change of layout style (Like center, Iphone, normal)

# working correct only NovaLauncher if u made full wipe, please install it, original has FC

We have a rule in development section which states that you're to post things you've developed yourself. Will you be able to bring over bugfixes as and when they're released for the original?
[Desire Android Development] evgen-baton:
as i said, I'm not a developer. I can only tell about the bugs to the author and he'll work on them.

here is the author

The thing is that he has no time to maintain a thread
[Desire Android Development] noonamer:
hello guys, there is my ROM, but i havn't much time for moderate this thread, sorry
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
What is included in nmr settings and kernel? Are you saying this has a different ics kernel? Full hwa? What has been improved? Mine has aroma installer.
[Desire Android Development] noonamer:
this is from drewis sdk, but i added Battery FIx, net sched, and some governors, some tweaks and more

NMR Settings - it's mine own apk, i wrote into java it, only for my rom, that's improved much different things, like CPU control. interface settings
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
I'll probably take a look and see what's worth adding to mine :)
[Desire Android Development] noonamer:
okey, thx u for ur rom, best port now for MIUI=)

but i would said, that's not MIUI Rom like others, there is rom with full program part like scripts, my own NMR Settings, kernel, and some others..
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
? not sure what you mean there?

I would suggest having a thread for the kernel too as there's not exactly much choice for ics at the moment so I'm sure people would be interested.

Is this release based on my 2.2.17 build? The op really needs a lot more info, as well as thread title.
[Desire Android Development] noonamer:
yes this release based on 2.2.17 but i port all new libs from Sandvold..

for kernel, i have work on kernel based on 3.0.8 for android, now i made him compiling well, but him no starting...i try to fix there issues

and from Monday i'll havn't much time for my PC=(
