Target not found ... Do i have to add a ppa or something?

Will you make a mountloop kernel of 3.1.10 too? Is the current mountloop.zip working for anyone?(Does not do anything for me.)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] szigeza:
Hi x3maniac.

I try ubuntu raring image. It boot, but how can I start the wifi module.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Mn5612:
Does the mount loop kernel work for anyone else? I just get a kernel panic followed by a reboot
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] transformador:
The most easy method is to mount the image to a folder and chroot into it from a working ubuntu installation. Then you can download the stuff you need via the connection of the working ubuntu/arch installation.

For example(with raring.img on /home/user)

cd /home/user (return)(now you are in home/user folder)

mkdir /mount (makes folder called mount)

sudo mount raring.img /home/user/mount (you have the contents of raring in /mount)

sudo chroot /home/user/mount (in this terminal you are now in raring.img, but you have the internet connection of your current ubuntu)

before that, i would resize it because 200mb are not much xD

cd /to/the/folder/of/your/img

sudo e2fsck raring.img -f (checks the filesystem, dont do this if you mounted the img)

sudo resize2fs raring.img 2000M (resizes it to 2000 mb, 3000M would be 3000Mb, easy :))

sudo e2fsck raring.img (checks the filesystem)

your raring.img is now the size youu wanted, more space, this is needed for resizing ubuntu.img for mountloop too.

then you can boot the image with the de you chosed and setup wifi very easy(didnt test on raring yet.

kick start wpa supplicant

wpa_supplicant -B -i wlan0 -c /path/to/wpa_supplicant.conf

ubuntu core comes with ipconfig, and it's well hidden. using "find /|grep ipconfig" will reveal the location. or just type this command to start your wifi

/usr/lib/klibc/bin/ipconfig wlan0

remember to make a user before you decide to install your desktop

[quick and dirty how to]

this will add a nameserver to your list so apt-get update will work

nano /etc/resolv.conf

add

go into your apt source list and uncomment the universe repositories

nano /etc/apt/sources.list

then update your apt list

apt-get update

now to install sudo for your user account your going to make

apt-get install sudo -y

now to add users

useradd username

add user to sudoer file

nano /etc/sudoers

logout of root

exit

now log back in with your new username

now we are ready to install a new DE(desktop environment)

sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop

or

sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop

or

sudo apt-get install xfce4

google for more:laugh:

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] x3maniac:
OK... so after doing a lot of research... it's very possible to create a multi boot kernel using this method kexec-hardboot yes i have tested it and it work. but it is a lot of work are requires a patch on both ends of the kernel(this mean both my kernel and android/ubuntu kernels need to have the kexec patch loaded, which require recompile of every kernel you need to use). so for now i will not be developing a multi boot kernel. maybe in the future(because i'm a independent developer and thats just too much work for me to handle), i'm already spreading myself too thin with just making a windows app / ubuntu images / kernel images, and now... my android app. yes you read right!

latest news:

newest development will be a Android app for TF-Nix*(thinking of changing the name to that).

what can this app do?

allows support for different boot methods (internal emmc / micro sd card / dock sdcard / usb thumb / usb hdd)

checks for newest kernel updates and images

one click dual boot flasher (i don't have a clever name for this yet. but will do what the windows app does, and will make your device dual boot if you don't have it)

and for people who want to support me, i added "ad-mobs" =)

why make a android app?YE

this way you don't have to lug around a computer and a usb cable if you need to flash a new kernel / image!! Yes TomTcom i'm directing this to you lolss quit your complaining! lol just kidding

as for my windows app.. i am working on releasing version 1.0 which will include:

fixed Ubuntu Only! (yes finally looked into it and fix it)

emmc resizer for people who need more space in linux space. and 32gb users

added more flashing methods do support (emmc / micro sd / dock sdcard / usb thumb /hdd) boot

made a eaiser step by step installer

backup! options to fully backup your tf101

why keep support of windows app?

the windows app is the only one that can re partition emmc. so if you want ubuntu to run on emmc you will still need to flash with the windows tool. if you prefer to use sdcard. both the android app and windows app can make this happen.

emmc (fastest)

hdd (medium)

sdcard (slowest) use class 4 for fastest performace. due to randrom r/w 4k bytes it's faster then using class 10

other stuff in the works:

i am working on a repository server (maybe go with PPA) so my tf101 stuff can be apt-get'able :good: i've been compiling a lot weird software to get our tablets even more functional. example: wine and a patched version of qemu. this way when i release updates you can either apt-get the update or just download from my ppa. this will come later.... android app 1st =)

i will keep you guys posted with the updates. once i get the android app up... i'll post it and it will be on android market.

-d
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] TomTcom:
Lol very funny sir!

Thanks for the update on everything. I'll be interested in trying out your new products. I'm struggling to learn a lot about Linux. I know only just enough to be dangerous so I do wish to help out and make it better for you and everyone. That bluetooth was a pain...

I do have some requests but only to make it better for everyone that is using this. Lol...now I don't even want to ask you!......

Can you convert the bluetooth directions I gave to an upstream job or something that doesn't require the user to configure it?

We need pand (PAN daemon) from bluetooth-compat added however (sudo apt-get install bluez-compat works just fine).

The kernel needs IEEE 802.1d ethernet bridging baked in to create the bridge for Bluetooth tethering.

Can the kernel be recomplied for an option like the bridging directly from the tablet? Would that be something I could do myself?

I hate to ask all these things but I believe you probably have the best Ubuntu image and support right now.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] x3maniac:
is this what you need?

btw: step 3 on your bluetooth guide link is dead

nvm i found it.. i'm baking one just for you right now.. i'll pm you with link when done
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] TomTcom:
The command I was attempting to execute came from the package bridge-utils. It is already installed but when executing the command brctl addbr "bridge name" it says the package isn't found. My internet searches point to a module not loaded and it needing to be configured during the compile of the kernel. I think the bridge is different from the host ap mode. I would bridge bnep0 interface and hci0.

The link below is setting up the PAN connection:

http://blog.sumostyle.net/2009/11/ubuntu-tethering-via-bluetooth-pan/

And under the heading called "Setting Up the Bridge"

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkConnectionBridge

So so far what I can do is:

1. sudo pand --connect (mac of phone)

2. sudo dhclient bnep0 (I am able to get internal IP address of 192.xxx)

3. brctl addbr "tom'sphone" > this is where it fails saying the bridge isn't loaded

4. brct addif tom'sphone bnep0 hci0 > or whatever the interface names are going to be...haven't gotten that far

Lol, got me some errors. /dev/mmcblk0p8 has been mounted 36 times without being checked, check forced. (wouldn't be surprised if that's my fault, the system hangs and I have to force reboot).

Re: [Win32/64][Dual Boot][Mount-Loop] Tubuntu - 1 click installer SBK1 & SBK2! *2/1/2

Seeing how far this has come I am really glad I never finished getting support for SBKv2, because I would never have been able to do everything you guys are doing. I'm too much of a Java programmer lol

Found this though: http://wiki.winehq.org/ARM

Anybody able to check and see if Wine works anything decent on Fedora? Trying to find a dock still myself.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] TomTcom:
X3 is the brains of this operation. KingZak and I have been making guides and helping out where we can. I tried Java and I just stink at it. I think I need actual training from an instructor.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] x3maniac:
yes and no.. i have a version out and i also .deb'ed it all compiled and everything. you need a patched version of qemu-user and i386 version of wine and you can run windows app. at pretty good speeds too. i got mine.exe and notepad.exe to work. compiling the ARM version of wine does nothing. it runs but wont run any i386 .exe but can run arm windows ce stuff.

i'm the same. if it wasn't for code completion i would suck at java. i can program in many different languages but i can just barely make it with java. good thing it's very similar to c++

after i finish making version 1.0 of the windows app. and launch android version of the app. i will be posting my source codes on git. maybe you can learn from my codes?

Probably none of my business but what exactly are you needing Java programming for? Only Java project I have going on anymore is a chatroom.

Just realised, android app. Couldn't ever get the SDK to work on my computer so I'm of no help there lol.

What some awesome news ! :D

I've just one dumb question, backup include Ubuntu too ?

Will you plan to add a "Ubuntu backup only" ? It can be great ! :) [/Dumbquestions]

Anyway, it's just amazing, the work you're doing, just want to tell you ;)

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] x3maniac:
it will be a set of check boxes on what you want to back up. so it's going ot be up to you if you just want to back up the ubuntu partition... keep in mind that it will be the full partiton whether or not you only used 2gb the partion is 6gb and will take a aweful long time to fetch from the transformer

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] outpox:
Thank you so much, your work is amazing !

I found a bug (I hope I'm in the right place to report it). Screen goes black "for ever".

Prerequisite : tab + dock

1. Boot normally on Lubuntu

2. When you're logged in reduce the luminosity with the key on the dock

3. Reduce it at minimum

4. The screen goes black (it light off)

5. Try to increase it now

6. It's stuck, you need to hard reboot

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] TomTcom:
Just some information for anyone using the Raring GNOME-CORE setup, if you enable the accessibility and select Make text larger and easier to read, it's pretty nice giving the tf101 a more tablet feel.

Also as X3 mentioned to me the new version of onboard has a better dock setting set up. In addition, go into the dconf editor > org > onboard > window > landscape > and in the options if you change dock-height you can also make it feel more android like when using the onscreen keyboard.

Also, I reccommend turning off suspend in your power settings for all the values. Just set how long you want your screen to wait before turning off and the power button to turn off the screen works well too.

Also, if you don't like the tool tips, search dconf for "tooltips" and uncheck the options so you don't have to deal with them. They can be annoying sometimes.

X3...still can't find option for onboard at the login screen, I've been up and down the dconf editor but I could be missing it completely.

Using mountloop kernel blob yes, but mmcblk0p4 is the staging partition. The updater-script flashes it to mmcblk0p10. Either way no changes are ever made. I just recently fixed a laptop from 2001 and put xUbuntu on it. Will do some messing around with the blob later to see if its packed incorrectly.
