"For now, let's talk a little more about what we know. Ubuntu for tablets will run on ARM chips (at least), supporting screen sizes from 6" to 20" and resolutions from 100 to 450 pixels per inch. Just like Ubuntu for phones, an Ubuntu tablet can be docked with a keyboard, mouse, and monitor to provide a full PC experience."

Re: Native Ubuntu Linux on Infinity tf700 v0.8.0

In Debian you could get the list of installed packages with dpkg and some option, store that list in a file, and later install the same apps with a single command from the repository. I think the same should still work in Ubuntu. Usually there is no need to backup the programs themselves - although of course you can use tar to backup anything you like.
[Asus Transformer TF700] oblib__:
The configuration and "app" data is all stored in your home directory, usually in "dot" folders (".mplayer" for example). As long as your home directory is safe (backed up), it's just a matter of installing whatever programs you had before, as _that mentions above.

For some reason i thought Nexus 10 was based on Tegra 3 as well, my fault :silly:

I would wait until rabits gets a chance to go through it. The installer from Ubuntuwiki does a device check before installing.

Yeah, I'm already dive into it. Ubuntu Touch using android to boot & show its qml view. This is interesting, but really hard to pack in separated rootfs.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gennro:
Once the porting guide is up tomorrow and I have some time I am going to work on getting the Nexus 7 image working on the TF700. I tried getting it working on my Nexus 7 but all I got was a soft brick. I am running PA 3.0 on it so that may of caused it because I think the installer is expecting a stock rom to be installed.

The .80 Build Problems

Guys

I like one or 2 others here at the moment have had a problem trying to get the new build working. I can get the installer working no problem and Ubuntu boots no problem but I have no wireless conectivity. By default I get very little to no Wireless options at all and then if I increase the permissions on NetworkManager file to 777 I get Wireless options come up but it states WLAN0 not available.

When the installation happens does it do a full wipe of the SD card/partition first to clear any possible corruptions in existing data/files (I am using the SD card in the keyboard)?

Adobe flash isnt supported on arm devices right? youtube doesn't work, however I recently went over on reddit and played a youtube video within their site (with the play+ button that shows up under post titles). What sort of magic is happening here?

Also, firefox is running deathly slow, chromium and stock browser working very smoothly. Got xfce desktop environment and compiz, it's a fantastic combo and I highly recommend it for anyone playing around with this.

This new Ubuntu tablet is optimized for tablet. It has a kind of Unity ui and is I think very attractive because you can take advantage of the whole screen all the time. It is also supposed to have a normal desktop version that is accessible at any time (or only when a keyboard and a mouse or connected, I don't remember).

I am not sure if using compiz and stuff will be possible on the desktop part of this new version. I do not think either the installation of other desktop environments will be possible. Let's wait and see ;(

Re: Native Ubuntu Linux on Infinity tf700 v0.8.0

Tried to use the installer, but it just stops at 90% (extracting rootfs).

I've tried installing it to both an SD card and internal memory. I left it for over half an hour at 90% before I restarted.

Any suggestions? Where does the installer put the log file?
[Asus Transformer TF700] rtfpessoa:
It takes a lot at 90% but never like 30 minutes.

Try to delete all stuff and try it clean with the installer and the rootfs in the device memory not in the sdcard.

remove:

/data/ubuntu

/data/media/linux

Then just start the process and leave the tablet alone for 20 minutes, really alone.
