I did this, but on res. 1280x800 visible area is smaller then 10'' screen. Can we change te screen to the full 10'' but with resolution smaller then 1920x1080?

And second question. Can I connect with Ubuntu via remote ssh? I tried, but without success.
[Asus Transformer TF700] rabits:
Hmmm. You want to increase the font on the screen? This is calling "increase DPI in ubuntu" or "increase font size ubuntu" - please, google it.

You can enable ssh: rename file /etc/init/ssh.disabled to /etc/init/ssh.conf and use command "sudo start ssh" (ssh should start on port 22).
[Asus Transformer TF700] aros1975:
Before you anwered me, I did some step:

- sudo apt-get remove ssh

- sudo apt-get install ssh

After I did what your propose, but without success. Can you check your answer? Or, maybe it is fault of reinstalled ssh?

ps. I tried rename ssh.disabled to ssh and next time do ssh.conf and start every time by sudo ssh start, without success.
[Asus Transformer TF700] rabits:
Oh, yeah. rename to ssh.conf, of course. And start ssh by

$ sudo start ssh

For my test environment its working ok. Maybe you already totally broken ssh?))

To reinstall ssh:

$ sudo apt-get purge openssh-server
$ sudo apt-get install ssh

Please, also give me output of these command:

$ lsb_release -a
[Asus Transformer TF700] aros1975:
OK, after this steps ssh is working now, thx!

Output of lsb_release -a

rabits, tell me pls once again about screen resolutions. If I will doing the same on my laptop, for example, every resolution fits full screen, but, when I'm doing this on Ubuntu on tablet, smaller resolution makes visible area smaller.

Of course, I can modificate fonts DPI, but this can change only fonts and not change grafhics element, etc. I'm looking for the same way like on laptop.

+1 to this

The font DPI is too small. Otherwise it is AWESOME !!! The installation was EXTREMELY SIMPLE thanks to the new flashable bootloader. Thanks A LOT for your work !!! Once the DPI and the speed is improved, it will be the best !!!!!!!

---------- Post added at 05:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:38 PM ----------

BTW I suggest you remove that line in the instruction on th OP because it is confusing "Install script search archive file in sdcard, with name "tf700-rootfs*.tar.lzma".

Thanks again for the awesome work !!! :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] gautier56:
Hello Rabits,

Thank you for your work, you provide simple tools for us to install Linux !

But sadly, I can't manage to bring dual bootloader on my tf700t.

What I did :

- updated recovery bootloader to last TWRP version via goo manager

- wiped/formated all possible partitions proposed in TXRP

- installed last CleanROM Inheritance 3.1 deodex

- booted cleanrom, tested it, OK

- in TXRP, installed "CleanROM Inheritance 3.1"

Problem : nothing changed. Neither normal boot, neither fastboot. No "4 pinguins". CleanROM is starting normally.

When you speek about "bootloader", you mean initrd I hope ? Because I have the .30 Asus signed bootloader and thus I can't install nvflash tool, neither a non signed bootloader... Do you have any idea ?

Thank you,

Gautier.
[Asus Transformer TF700] richajf:
I'm also not able to install this.

I tried flashing the boot.blob with fastboot as well as the zip. I don't see 4 penguins. :(

My tablet was unlocked with the Asus Unlock Tool. I don't know what to do, and really would like to have this working for school.

Edit: And now it isn't even wanting to boot back into android with a CROMI 2.7.2 reinstall. :( It just hangs at the boot animation.

Edit 2: "First step - is change bootloader of your tf700 device. It's very simple now with ZIP Aroma installer." Does my bootloader need to be a certain version number? I didn't read that anywhere if that is the case.
[Asus Transformer TF700] maxal:
Your not alone, I tried this to with the same results as you except mines boots back up OK.
[Asus Transformer TF700] aros1975:
Guys, you can try fastbot method. It is more complicated, but fastbot way is checked and certainly works.
[Asus Transformer TF700] singoutout:
It strange that is doesn't work for you guys, I actually found the installation surprisingly simple.

Here is what I did :

1) Make sure you have CROMI 2.7 or up

2) Copy boot_installer-0.7.1.zip and tf700-rootfs-0.7.1.tar.lzma at the root of your micro sdcard (both files in the OP)

3) Reboot to recovery and flash the boot_installer-0.7.1.zip file. At that point you will need to choose a kernel (I chose 1.3-1.8 I think). All of them are supposed to work.

4) After the installation wipe cache/dalvik

5) Turn the device off, connect the keyboard dock, then turn it on to access recovery again. Since you have the new boot loader, you should see 4 pinguins at the top of the screen when the device is booting until you get to 4 choices : android, linux, install, shell.

6) Press i on your keyboard to select the installation option. It will then start looking for the tf700-rootfs-0.7.1.tar.lzma file that you copied earlier on your micro sd card. Once it is found, you will need to choose the Ubuntu image size (10Gb for me).

7) A summary of what is going to be install will then appear. Press y on the keyboard to say yes.

8) DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING UNTIL THE END OF THE PROCESS (about 10 minutes).

9) Once the process is done, press any key to go back the boot options.

10) Press 1 on the keyboard to boot to Ubuntu 12.10 (only unity 3d is supported now | the password to log in is ubuntu)

I hope this will help, but if you follow these steps it should work for EVERYONE. If it doesn't, make sure you have the right files and don't hesitate to download them again (a file kan easily get corrupted when downloading).

Don't forget to give feedbacks on this thread !

I personally think gnome-shell should be prioritize over unity since it is more tablet oriented (with lockscreen ...) and it would also be faster :)

Thanks again to Rabits for the awesome work!!!
[Asus Transformer TF700] rabits:
Yeah)) You twice install CR))

Seriously - you should give us moar information (device info, steps to reproduce, logs) - then I can help you.

This applies to everyone, who needs support.

Repacked bootloader installer

For all who have problems with installing 0.7.1 bootloader from Aroma I have repacked original Clemsyn`s kernel zip (1.8 GHz / 650 MHz) with rabit`s patched dualboot kernel. It worked for me, you can try it.

Install as usual zip without Aroma
[Asus Transformer TF700] snakerock:
For those who are interested how to change DPI (increase size of controls):

I`ve google a lot and tried different ways to change DPI, but all of them failed. Now you cant actually change DPI, but you can scale size using folowing command:

You can try different values instead of 0.85x0.85 (for example, 0.75x0.75; the smaller number - the bigger size), but it failed for me to set some values.

After that all visible controls (except the cursor O_o) will be resized, but the quality of image will be a little worse...

Rabits, could you help with changing exactly DPI? Google doesn`t help
[Asus Transformer TF700] rabits:
Thanx, now I found problem in zip installer (selectbox property selection) - than first item is not properly working.

Now I updated ZIP installer (v 0.7.1.1) - please, download and use it to install boot image. Manual updated.
[Asus Transformer TF700] rabits:
This is really interesting)) Thank you.

I'm trying to research in this case - but no luck. Many programs operate with the pixel size and are oblivious to the exposed DPI.

Currently I working on preparation full-featured Aroma installer (with rootfs) and I can't spend time to the DPI problem. If anyone can help me with it or other problems - welcome to DEV thread ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] snakerock:
Be careful with Ubuntu updates

Also I figured out, that after running apt-get update you will get notification with >20 proposed updates.

After installing Unity updates I`ve got all Unity-related controls in artifacts and glitches, so I wouldn`t recommend anybody to install them; but after installing all updates except Unity-related, system begins to lag and freeze a looot, so, be careful with updates or don`t install any.

P.S. For those who can`t manage to install language packs - all you have to do is to run sudo apt-get update and install language pack you want.
[Asus Transformer TF700] aros1975:
rabit, due to ssh login problems - on new imagefile, in this case rename file ssh.disabled to ssh.conf in /etc/init is not enough - for start ssh daemon we need uninstall openssh-server with purge and install again. This only helps...

Does that mean that the next version will be run directly from ssd, without virtual file?
[Asus Transformer TF700] singoutout:
I have tried a lot of things, but is there really now way to have gnome-shell instead of unity 3d ???

When I install it with the terminal and then log on unnder gnome, I get only gnome classic, but not gnome-shell. Anyone?

It seems like you can install any environment, but you have to log into unity before you turn the device off, otherwise linx won't boot again.
[Asus Transformer TF700] rabits:
No. I would like to do completely install process from Aroma installer (really nice interface without shell). Currently (before stabilizing of image) installation on device emmc - it's too dangerous.

Why? This is really strange - please, do some tests and give me information about this problem.
[Asus Transformer TF700] singoutout:
You said that only unity is supported, right ? So getting into a linux bootloop when turning the device off from another environment than unity makes sens, doesn't it ?

However, I was wondering if you could help me running gnome-shell ? Have you tested it ? I defenitely recommend it for a tablet (more than unity). However I can't get it to work. I get the classic gnome environment instead.

Do you think you could help me ?

Had anyone else tried it ?

ps : what is the awesome environment ? (most of it is in Russian, so I couldn't figure what it actually was)
[Asus Transformer TF700] rabits:
I support Unity on tf700 device)) This is meant - that I provide Unity support (before release I test Unity environment). You can install any DE, but I can't support it problems (glitches, slowdown etc).

I can not trace the cause-and-effect relationship. After installing another DE or WM you should have a new choice in LightDM logon screen. I need moar information about your bootloop (devices info, steps to reproduce, screen shots etc). But you can simple reflash your kernel by CleanROM kernel installer.

No, I can not help - I have the list of higher priority tasks. Also - Unity is main DE of Ubuntu. Maybe, someone else in this thread?

:laugh: No, awesome is Window Manager: Awesome WM

Can't Login

Hi there

Firstly, well done! Really amazing ;)

Secondly, stupid question: I am able to dual boot, boot Ubuntu (from a microSD) and am left with the login screen. When entering the password, ubuntu, it flashes the console and then back to the login screen. X restarting?

Have I done something wrong? I've been having trouble with the installation in the sense that I didn't know whether to partition and unlzma as root or ubuntu.. Does this affect the permissions in the partition? Is this actually the problem?

Additionally, I am unable to get the console as I'm not sure which actual keys are mapped to Ctrl Alt F1.. Ctrl Alt 'wireless'?

Ty ;) I'm really keen to get Ubuntu grafting on my tab

Sorry for my report, I was very tired this night. I will try to be more precise next time.

Anyway you found the bug, your last installer worked well for me, Thank you !

To my knowledge, are you porting ubuntu for your personnal need or do you do that for your professionnal work ?

Thank you for your efforts,

Version 0.7.1 seems very solid rabits, well done! It is so good I may try to actually use it.

http://xdaforums.com/images/smilies/good.gif

1. I still have some problems with the ubuntu software downloader. However, using apt-get on command line works fine.

2. Suspend, of linux, does not work for me. Well, I mean recover doesn't I suppose. Does this work for you or anyone? I am running off an SD card in the base unit.

3. I can create other users fine, but I do not get a username/password dialog on startup -- I can only log into ubuntu. I was thinking of renaming this but cannot while it is logged in.

4. Is it faster off the internal sd card (seems unlikely given I/O problems)? What about the microSD?

5. Can I simply move my current setup form the base SD to microSD (or internal for that matter) and expect your bootloader to find it?

So -- many questions!
[Asus Transformer TF700] richajf:
Re: Native Ubuntu Linux on Infinity tf700

How did you go about doing that? I'm not seeing an escape key on the onscreen keyboard.

I'm also trying to figure out how to make a new user account/change the root password without being able to log in. :confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] rabits:
Unfortunately, I had just started it. Perhaps the blame additional repositories linaro ... I will test it before the next release.

Yes, of course, I'm working on suspend to RAM problem. In release 7.1, I finished work on the stabilization of Android.

I also not tested this feature. For now you can create user by `adduser` command from terminal.

Yeah, you can try to use microsd - bootloader can load any external media first partition as rootfs (USB (sda1|sdb1), SDcard(sda1|sdb1), microsd(mmcblk1p1)).

and if i use the root66 - PreRooted Firmware - T999_UVALJ4 and flash a JB ROM the "Triangle" will not show up?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] BeatnikBandit:
I have NEVER had the triangle even when my system says it is modified. Right now my phone is on the exact same thing i used odin with root66 then i flashed frosty. No triangle but my binary count is at one. With triangle away which i have used to test as far as i have been able to see it works fine so with the wonderful Triangle away i don't think their is any worry. If you do get the triangle just use triangle away.

Unfortunately this is an issue with the A100, some have the issue others don't(mine does). It seems to be a grounding issue or that is what the general consensus is.

No way to really fix it, if you have a cover taking it off may help, and trying different ways of holding it may help as well.
