Sv: [Linux] [Dev] [WIP] Ubuntu Touch on the TF101 - PrePreAlphaBeta - It Boots!

@jholtom: Could the reason for not applying the resfix at boot be that /data/ubuntu hasnt been mounted before you are running the script.

Because I cant find the mount command for that url anywhere in init.ventana.rc?

Maybe it gets mounted by something from the big flashfile?

Just a thougth...

[EDIT] I was wrong! You need to add the correct paths to ubuntu-session in resfix file. Like /data/ubuntu/usr/bin/ubuntu-session.

Hope this helps!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] csb5731:
Yeah, when I first booted 0.5, everything looked larger vs. when I had made the modifications with the 16 replacements in the ubuntu-session, but some things, like the icons in the top bar, looked more appropriately-sized (they were tiny in my "fixed" attempt). So I figured that my earlier "res-fixed" job was too many changes. I looked at the images in the original post in this thread and figured that is what everything is supposed to look like. The keyboard, though, was the obvious giveaway.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] *Detection*:
I've tried changing only the missing entries, only the tablet entries, etc etc but it always boots with the wrong rez

The only way I can get it to scale everything correctly is to change every single instance of the 2 different values

Take your time, no point in burning yourself out, plus it's going to be a while before Canonical release anything close to a daily driver

I restored my 4.2.2 Nandroid earlier and having not used it for about a week I had forgotten how smooth it was, I think we can safely say that HW/Acceleration on Ubuntu is either not working or needs a lot of tweaking ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jholtom:
Definitely, its in the category of not working since there is a SIGSEGV (segfault for the new/uninformed, notoriously PITA errors) going on with some OpenGL underpinnings and some of the ubuntu software drawing the screen.

We're also in for an adventure with Mir, ubuntu's new display server to run ubuntu touch, replacing their use of surfaceflinger (Android's) and I've already seen some of Mir's bits and bobs showing up in the logs i've got from you awesome testers. So in other words, we might be thrown back to square one on graphics here in the next couple months.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] *Detection*:
Well at least it won't be 100% learning curve this time, I've used the different Ubuntu commands so much the past week I don't think I`ll ever forget them :)

Once things move away from the dev preview and into builds that we can start using more fully, betas etc, it will be more enjoyable anyway watching it evolve into something we can use as a main OS on there

Just wanted to let people know who think they want to try the build. I had to add

From a comment on youtube, so I did a bit of searching and looks to be true

----------

Of course, the real importance of Ubuntu's all-in-one strategy is in the convergence of devices that you can see at the end of the demo video. We've seen before that if you connect a phone to a dock, you'll get the full Ubuntu desktop experience, and the tablet is no different. It looks like Ubuntu plans for phones and tablets to be able to dock together as well. This means you can dock your phone to your tablet, and whatever you had open on your phone will be displayed in the side stage. Dock your tablet to a keyboard, and you'll get the Ubuntu desktop with all of your apps transferred over, and dock to a TV and you'll get the TV interface for a more "lean back" experience for watching video or playing games.

Re: [Linux] [Dev] [WIP] Ubuntu Touch on the TF101 - PrePreAlphaBeta - It Boots!

I'm not sure if that's exactly what they had in mind. The Canonical guys we're saying [at MWC] that the high powered phones could dock with a screen, keyboard and mouse to provide the full desktop. I'd assume the same applies for high powered tablets but it might not be the best experience with our trusty old TF101s.

I would love to try some of these... But I can do basic rooting and a little adb stuff.

Do these Linux loads above require lots of steps?

Or can a laymen get it done in a couple of steps?

Just curious...

Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] *Detection*:
Most of it is exactly the same as flashing a custom Android ROM, after that you need to edit one file to fix the resolution which isn't too bad

Or you can look back through the thread and grab one already fixed and use ADB or Recovery to copy it to the tablet and give it the correct permissions which would save editing it manually

Not too difficult really
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jholtom:
i honestly don't mind, I just didn't expect the immediate attack on my network, I can normally handle 5 or so downloading at once.....
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] *Detection*:
I think Ubuntu on the TF101 is going to be VERY popular

I`ll mirror it once its done downloading here too

When it boots, am I expecting a boot animation / image ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] RonSykes:
That reminds me. When I flashed the preview to my Galaxy Nexus I thought it had failed to boot (10 mins with a black screen) but when I pushed the power button I discovered it had just been asleep. For some reason it boots with the screen off.

For those who describe the black screen above I wonder if it may have been the same issue.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jholtom:
Nope, right now it boots with a black screen, I estimate 1 -2 minutes for boot...wait 10 if it doesnt after that point. and as always logcat if it doesn't work....That'll help me trace whats wrong and get you guys a new build sooner.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] *Detection*:
I tried pressing the power button a few times, touching the screen, hitting volume keys, undocking etc etc

The backlight was on, but no-one was home

---------- Post added at 01:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:45 AM ----------

Ah I did think of logcat from my first test but because it was Ubuntu, didn't expect it would work

Logcat is just a linux command then? Not specific to Android ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jholtom:
Lets step back and take a look at what this actually is.

This is really a massive bastardization of android that chroots to ubuntu. That 50mb file is a highly modified android system that chroots into that 480mb file you download. so logcat is go go go go. but yes logcat is android only and this thing relies on adb.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] RonSykes:
Ubuntu Touch is still running on a low level android base. So ADB works as you would normally expect it to.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] *Detection*:
Ah got you, thanks, so basically once you work out the 50MB Android, the rest is just waiting on Canonical to improve their image

No luck with the first method. Now booting a cm 10.1 ROM to try the second method.

I'm a custom ROM-flasher ever since my HTC Hero years ago. Although I understand the basics, I'm not a programmer, nor a Linux user. Nonetheless, I would really like to test this build. If you feel my question is 'stupid' or you think I didn't try to search, please ignore me.

I followed the installation-steps from the first post and flashed this over EOS4 (cm10.1). All I get is a black screen (it's on, I can see that thanks to the bleeding edges) after the 'eee pad'-logo. Any suggestions?

EDIT: just noticed the screen does turn on and off by pressing the power button. Still a black/blank screen though. Resolutionfix flashable zip is applied.

You probably need to chmod the session file. Using twrp navigate to the ubuntu-session file and chmod it. Make I executable by adding x to it. I don't have my device here to make it clearer than that.

Make sure you flash the latest 50MB zip too, the very first release had a black screen problem

Hi, I am using 2.6.36.4 kernel.

I have downloaded two of those files and installed accordingly to the order.

When I booted my tablet, first I saw a blue installation bar and then the main screen(Eee Pad in the middle, Asus stuff in the bottom) and then it freezes at this point.

Is that because of the kernel?

If so I downloaded https://github.com/novaspirit/TF101-GNU-kernel as a zip and tried to install zip file through CWM but it fails each time, what's the correct way to install this kernel?

Thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jholtom:
You can't use any other kernel with this rom. It uses a special kernel for it. Please read the first posts next time....The right kernel is built in to my part. Along with the fact that downloading a zip from github, WILL NEVER FLASH, its not even a CWM flashable for heavens sake. <- It's the source.

Anyway I digress. I'm back to building for this project, and will have a new version up tonight or tomorrow with the latest updates merged and some little ideas I've had. Life sometimes throws us a mess. Thanks guys!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sarpk:
Thanks for responding!

So kernel is built-in to ubuntu-touch-tf101.zip file? Then I am doing everything correct. I am installing ubuntu-touch-tf101.zip and quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip in CWM. CWM installs it but then when i reboot as I said all I get is Eee Pad screen, nothing else happens...

Still have the same problem. This is what I did (couple of times):

-Put these two zips on microsd and checked md5

-Boot into recovery (power+volume down then volume up)

-In TWRP v2.3.2.3 --> wipe --> Cache & Dalvik Cache & Factory Reset & System & Internal Storage & Format Data (I know some of these are double, just to be sure)

-Install --> ubuntu-touch-tf101.zip

-Install --> quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip

-Wipe cache & dalvik

-Reboot system

Still only a black screen after the Eee Pad logo. Screen is on, just nothing to see.

Flash 480MB zip
