Kernel we can find on your goo repo, are the same as those on first post with different clock ?

BTW, last version is really amazing, with stable kernel it's a real pleasure !

Just miss the HW Acceleration to be smooth when scrolling etc, and it will be paradise :D

You've to add manually printer with "Printers" In System Tools And then it will search for driver etc and all works :)

Yeah its me again and again

Hmmm Thats sad I get this error

When I want to install something.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] x3maniac:
yea i'm working on getting 3d back but i rahter have it stable and hotplug and sound working over 3d accelleration

that's great news about the printer!

i'm looking into that.. traces of ac100 still left in the system... that is a work in progress but it should stop you from apt-get install something. unless you did apt-get upgrade..
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Kingzak34:
So what should I do ? I didnt uderstand the end of your sentence, my english is not so good :P

I should apt-get upgrade and then apt-get install may work ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] x3maniac:
that error message only shows up for me when i do apt-get upgrade

apt-get install should work fine

don't use apt-get upgrade
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Kingzak34:
Ho Ok ! But I didnt use apt-get upgrade.

I did :

And I got this error, anyway, I'll retry ;)

I found what command make this append :
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] loscassapalle:
in 1.1 I have a problem with chromium: it loads the page, but it's empty.

i've also a noob q: how do i update from 1.1 to 1.2 without losing data?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] x3maniac:
i have not created a patch to update the system upwards yet. i'm still learning how to make a deb that will do that.. so for now if your want you would need to load the new rootfs to get to 1.2

chromium is a matter of kernel. if you load my newest kernel it should fix the problem

on another note!

i have been heavly using 1.6ghz kernel and found for everyday standard use it's fine but if need to compile say QEMU or something heavy it will crash saying file read error or something.. here is a good work around

install cpufrequtils

apt-get install cpufrequtils

this give you the power to control your cpus like i have been doing

cpufreq-set --cpu 0 -d 816000 -u 1400000 -g ondemand
cpufreq-set --cpu 1 -d 816000 -u 1400000 -g ondemand

read cpufreq-set for more options

but what i did here was lock cpu 0 with minium freq as 816mhz and max freq 1.4ghz with goverenor ondemand(performance will do too)

keeping the minium at 816 will seem that you will not experence any laggy ness

now when compiling with -j2 option. there should be no crashing.

to furthur this approch you can modify your /etc/rc.local file and set it on boot!

to find out more freq just type

cpufreq-info

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] x3maniac:
thanks to lilstevie for this advice

run

remove any package that says ac100 with

you can do

sudo apt-get upgrade
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Kingzak34:

Yep, after remove packages, it's all good ! :D ( for my command, I've not enough time to test apt-get upgrade )
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] projeto56:
So. Is it a bad idea to use this as my first Linux contact?

Ive managed to flash and boot it. But i have no wifi, and now im getting an error when i try to start the system. Something about being out of space in one of the partitions.

Maybe because i flashed it 2am. I will try again today.

If anyone can help me with any more info i'd be glad :D

Edit: Attached a photo of where i get stuck.

Edit2: Ok, managed to get it working again, including wifi. :D

Only thing that i can't fix is cromium not displaying anything.

Also, to change the kernel, i just go to advanced tab and select x3maniac kernel on the bottom and click flash?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Kingzak34:
You've to download one of three stable kernel, rename it as linux.img, put it on images folder, replace the old one, and flash 2.6.38 Chrome Kernel And for Kernel it will be good.

Now, what ubuntu.img are you using ?

BTW, x3maniac, is it possible to get flash to work or not ? Cause I'm searching, but if it's not possible, I'll stop to :P
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] projeto56:
I'm using Lubuntu V1.1-rc1 (12.10)

Now i'm trying to mess with the partition sizes, tryied to give linux 23gb but got stuck on formating, now i've reduced it to 20gb and it's rolling as we speak.

The kernel should be replaced after i finish installing ubuntu right?

Also, about flash, he said earlier to use this command " sudo apt-get install lightspark browser-plugin-lightspark ".
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Kingzak34:
I didnt play with partion sizes

Anyway, you must use last 1.2 img, it is more more usable as daily use i mean.

The kernel can be flash after flashing ubuntu yes.

If you flash last img, with one of 3 last stable kernel you'll have all stuff working except HW Acceleration not working.

( If you DL last ubuntu img, rename it as ubuntu.img place it on image folder and flash Only rootfs img not fully reflash )

BTW thanks for answer about flash, I'll test it :P

Ho yeah, and what SBK V is your tablet ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] projeto56:
You mean this ( http://novaspirit.com/tubuntu/LubuntuV1.img.zip ) and this ( http://novaspirit.com/tubuntu/linux3.zip ) ?

Mine is SBKv2

BTW, seem to be stuck again when i change the value for the partition size on config/dualboot.cfg . :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Kingzak34:
I mean this http://goo.im/devs/x3maniac/tubuntu.img.tar.gz

And http://novaspirit.com/tubuntu/2.6.36.4.img.zip

This ;)

I think you should stay with default value for now for dualboot.cfg ( I think 6Go is enough for ubuntu ? ) I dont know how to play with it.

BTW Did anyone had the status bar blinking in ubuntu ? I cant do anything and I dont know what append. May someone know this ?

It's the second time this thing append and I didnt do same thing ... Anyway, not big trouble, I'll relflash.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] projeto56:
Thanks a lot bro!

I'm actually really lost with this, didn't followed the thread from the beginning and the op is kind of messy. lol

About the size, mine was filled as soon as i booted the OS :eek:

I'm going to check again with the new version as soon as it finishes downloading :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Kingzak34:
Dont forget to only flash rootfs not fully reflash Android/Ubuntu ;)

And yes, I asked x3maniac if I can make a guide for SBKV2, to be more clear for new users :P

BTW, when you fully booted OS You've to do in terminal : sudo resize2fs /dev/mmcblk0p8

like it said in first OP to have the image fitting all space on partition and not only 1.5Go of img file
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] projeto56:
Thanks again!

Definitely missed that :o

Hi

I know I am on "dev" section... But simply speaking : what to do to install dual boot Ubuntu in my tf101 running eos4.

I read OP forth and still now what to do...

Sorry for disturbance... If so, je please PM me the links for a tutorial in apps thread

I really need to install Ubuntu in dual boot because i need running flash sites for my studies

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] loscassapalle:
nandroid backup on sd, then use this tool as the op says. At the end flash cmwrecovery, restore the image. Then flash linux kernel again.

I installed last image and kernel. very good work, now no issues with chromium.

bt is not working (is it normal?), but most of all i have an issue with the space: /home is full (1.35 GB) after fresh install and i can't neither use the software updater (no space left). What am i failing?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] projeto56:
Hey! Welcome!

First you have to download all of these files

http://www.novaspirit.com/tubuntu/tubuntu_v042.rar

http://www.novaspirit.com/tubuntu/tubuntu.zip

http://goo.im/devs/x3maniac/tubuntu.img.tar.gz

http://novaspirit.com/tubuntu/2.6.36.4.img.zip

http://www.novaspirit.com/tubuntu/system.zip

After all that is downloaded, extract the files from tubuntu_v042.rar to any folder you wish.

Then, you replace the .exe file inside the folder with the one found in tubuntu.zip

Extract the .img file inside tubuntu.img.tar.gz and rename it ubuntu.img. Then place it inside the tubuntu/images folder that you extracted in the first step.

Extract 2.6.36.6.img and rename to linux.img, placing it in the same folder as the above file (tubuntu/images).

Then extract system.img to the same folder.

After all that, open the tubuntu.exe as admin.

Reboot your tablet in APX mode (hold vol up + power button for some time, your screen will go black)

Plug your tablet to your PC, the text "APX not detected" should change to green "APX mode detected". If it doesn't disconnect your device, and go to the "other" tab on the program. Select the correct version of the drivers.

When detected, just go to flash tab and press the flash button under "Dual boot A/U"

Wait some time. The program will apparently hang, but don't worry. it's doing it's "thang".

During the process, your tab will reboot. Setup your accounts as if you had factory reseted your tab.

When you are done, shut down the tablet, and hold vol down + power button. It will start to boot linux.

After the fisrt boot, open the terminal and type sudo resize2fs /dev/mmcblk0p8 , it will ask for the root password, witch is " family ". DON'T FORGET THIS!

After that everything should be working great. Just remember, to boot to linux you have to hold vol down + power, as if you were going to recovery. Android should boot without needing any interference.

Guys, if i forgot something or said something wrong, feel free to correct me :)

Use this command on terminal

sudo resize2fs /dev/mmcblk0p8
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] kokabunga:

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Kingzak34:
I'm asking somthing to myself, x3maniac and other, do you think it's possible to have separate Recovery and Ubuntu kernel partition ?

I mean for exemple, when you do Reboot to recovery in Android it boot TWRP for exemple, and when you do usual trick when tab is off, it brings you to Ubuntu ? Or Something different, with possibility to have both Recovery and Ubuntu booting ? ( Just a question, not a request ;) )
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] x3maniac:
i looked into doing that... recoding a twrp to inject the kernel you want to boot into primary boot partition..then it will boot to what ever you want and if you want to switch to android then you would have to enter recovery then switch it up again.. so makes it true multiboot.. i have some codes in place but no where near usable yet

the idea i have in my mind is to have multi-boot and tools from recovery to restore nand backups. and this way it can also boot multible android or linux from internal or external sd
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Kingzak34:
Ok, that's verry interresting :) Keep up good work man ! :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] projeto56:
How about coding some kind of menu with links to diferent partitions.

For example a touch menu that presents the options: -Boot to android ; -Boot to Ubuntu ; -Boot to android recovery

Can this be done?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] TomTcom:
0.4.7 didn't appear to reboot into Prime correctly when flashing the Dual Boot A/U for SBK1. After all the partitions are done the app says all the images were sent successfully. The prior version would auto reboot into prime. After disconnecting the cable I had to hold the power button and it booted into Prime. Not sure if it needs the final command of nvflash -r --go to exit and reboot itself.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sainthout:
That would be a pretty hard job.

To achieve that you have to make a Linux kernel which shows the menu and when the selection is made it has to load another Linux kernel.

The only way to have a Linux kernel load another Linux kernel is by using Kexec.

Although Kexec looks like a normal Linux application, Kexec can be pretty hard to port to other platforms...
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] TomTcom:
I was thinking grub but the name escapes me of another loader I think that's designed for arm.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] projeto56:
Not only load a second linux kernel but also a android kernel. :(

Just tought there was a way to point at a partition and say "load that bro!". Kind of a shortcut to diferent hard drives.

But don't mind me. I'm a complete noob when it comes to linux :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Kingzak34:
I know that for exemple, Touchpad has a menu that can boot Android, CWM or WebOs

google music fix for chromium

Since sound was working I've been fiddling with Google music and chromium. The follow install fixes the error it throws:

sudo apt-get install chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra

It replaces something that never got updated in the switch to the html5 version. Found this fix over at http://blog.drewzh.com/2012/04/google-music-html5-audio-not-working-in.html

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Nudnik_de:
Thanks for the great work. Managed to get it working and it's running great. I'm on Lubuntu v1.2 with 2.6.36.4 - [cpu 1.4 ghz] kernel. But I have 2 Problems:

1. I had issues finding the right kernel for this Lubuntu version. Unfortunately the 2.6.36.4 with 1.2 ghz is not working, I'm constantly getting reboots during boot procedure. The 1.4 ghz version is working but seems to be unstable. I get occasional freeze so I have to reset the tf101. Which other kernel o work?

2. Can't update via Synaptec or apt-get. I'm getting an error message: "FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/3.1.10-6-ac100/modules.dep: No such file or directory" This is surprising as I'm using 2.6.36.4 kernel
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] TomTcom:
Did you install the kernel supplement zip?

Also a few pages back were commands to remove the ac100 stuff.

You can try the 1.6ghz kernel. It still locks for me in occasion.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Backwardsblade:
I have had stable performance with 1.6 and adjustments with cpufreq-utils. Very stable after the cpufreq tweaks in OP.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] x3maniac:
yup i forgot to issue that command on the new version for sbk1.. will be fixed soon

no you don't need new version to get sound working... sound was related to kernel.. just remember to go into alsamixer and enable master vol left speak out(drcl) right speaker out(drcR)

initrd is what gets booted before it enters userspace. it mounts the volumns and starts the system. all linux uses this.

umm i had a few moments again to try. must use the version that has no hardware accelleration for omap. and have to play around with the initramfs(initrd) to run the correct startup script. since it's not ubuntu i'm not sure what the startup command is. google

nice find!

i had to play around with the voltage more. the last 1.6 kernel has the most stable voltages over the old 1.4 and so forth. but 1.6ghz is still alittle flaky. you can try 1.5ghz using cpu-utils but 1.4 vs 1.5 really not much different... it's very stable on 1.4ghz
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Backwardsblade:
I agree. I should clarify, I used your previous 1.6 kernel and applied your cpu-freq commands. So I believe I am at 1.4 or so. Sorry for the confusion. Working very well, uptime of 8 hours with pretty heavy use (Libreoffice, google music, and reading emails)!

x3maniac, I just remembered something, When you do the trick to go to recovery but you dont push Vol Up, the tab brings you to a "Basic" recovery where you have the choice to boot Android or Wipe it data, maybe there is something to do with it ? Or it partition ? I dont know, just an idea :P
