primicx · Feb 18, 2013

Hello,

a question:

i have installed the 0.7.1.

If i would install the 0.8.0 - what will happen with the old installation?

Hi Guys! I have few questions:

1. Someone wrote about login/pass change via scripts. Where are this scripts included?
2. D2SD - work with this option should improve speed Ubuntu on my TF700T?
3. How can I install rotfs on my internal disk on TF700T. Now I can see onle virtual file option?
4. Will be internal disk option faster then virtual file?
5. Maybe someone want to write, whitch options should be used to get fastest Ubuntu on TF700T?

rabit, thanks for you great work!

Hi there! I don't find that little wifi-icon in the up-right corner. What's going on with that? Also, nothing happens when I click the Cromium button...

Hi, I have an odd question. Will normal minecraft java version work on this Ubuntu? It should, but I didn't try it out yet.

How I run minecraft:

Install openjdk-7-jre
Install liblwjgl-java libjinput-java libopenal1
Download loader (maybe, official loader is ok, but I need local play without registration)
Run loader and download minecraft `java -cp Minecraft\ Mac\ Linux.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame`
Replace files in ~/.minecraft/bin/natives and ~/.minecraft/bin by local installed:
- cp /usr/lib/jni/liblwjgl.so ~/.minecraft/bin/natives/
- cp /usr/lib/jni/libjinput.so ~/.minecraft/bin/natives/libjinput-linux.so
- cp /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libopenal.so.1.14.0 ~/.minecraft/bin/natives/libopenal.so
- cp /usr/share/java/lwjgl.jar /usr/share/java/lwjgl_util.jar ~/.minecraft/bin/
- cp /usr/share/java/jinput-20100502.jar ~/.minecraft/bin/jinput.jar
Run launcher again

So, minecraft running, but too slow (used software GL) and without input (click buttons in main menu). TODO:

LWJGL supports GLES, but in different classes. If someone can wrap gles function in gl functions - maybe we could run minecraft with good speed.
Debug JInput.

Unfortunately - I'm not a java programmer.

I'm using eclipse and i think it uses a lot of memory. When i try to add any plugin or just update it the app auto closes it self probably because has no memory or some other ressource left. @rabits can you take a look to se if is there any workaround to make this work?

I'm not using eclipse and can't debug it... Maybe you can try to use openjdk-6. Also I found bugreports about "caught unhandled signal 11" in openjdk - google it.

If you backup your files before installation (home directory) - you will not lose your files.

passwd - for change password, adduser - to create user. This is standart linux commands, rtfm.
No
Please, do not do this. If you don't know about passwd and adduser - you can't. Use virtual disk + separate home
No, not really

This is just so awesome! I am completely noob at Linux, though I have quite a general computer knowledge so I'me psyched about this!

However, I can't for the life of me figure out how to make the AltGr special characters. Any friendly advice?

Wifi not working

Wifi is not working for me

The device is detected (2 devices actually), but it's not able to detect any networks. I have attached a dump of dmesg. Tried both with and without the docking.

Thanx, this is known problem without solution... For now - simple reboot device.

Thanks for the tips

I have already tried them though without success (at least 10 times).

I have the same problem. It says Network enabled and Wireless enabled. But above that there is a grayed out text that says something like "wlan0 s not ready"

apkapkapk · Feb 19, 2013

Thanks for the work rabits! I'd like to ask something though; is this running on 1.8GHz? Or is it running at the "balanced" power setting? If so, will it run faster at 1.8GHz? And is there a way to program it to run at that speed?

EDIT: Also, is it possible to use a USB Stick on this? I tried using it but can't seem to access it.

TO : Rabits

Can You please compile TF300 kernel for yours nice ubuntu install ?

Ubuntu working on the TF300 but can't back to android without reflashing kernel :silly:

"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."

Mmmmmm, delicious...

You can set the custom DPI in the font configuration (EDIT: I use 160).
Additionally I had to enlarge the icon sizes and the panel heights.

In KDE I also enlarged the mouse cursor & the window control buttons (minimize, maximize, close).

Dude where did you change the DPI? fonts are too small here.
Thanks in advance

Go to layout --> options --> Key to choose 3rd level --> check right alt
