The folk at Ubuntu has announced Ubuntu for Tablets.
The moment this thing is installable on our Tabs mine is getting the treatment.

Looks pretty easy. I will do it today. Finally something interesting besides cm for tablets. Most ROMs are either cm clones or simply not tablet friendly, which is why I haven't worked on much here.

Not really. If the device supports CM 10.1 (which it does), then it supports Ubuntu. Canonical even posted a full guide. Problem is, who's going to do it?I think the only way we could get it is if someone takes the source code and probably do some crazy mods to it to get it to it to make it work for our tabs.
I am quite the optimist so here's to hoping!
Hopefully this gets ported to tab 10.1... can't see it happening though.

Do you own the 3g tab? If that is the case, then,assuming that ubuntu is based on cm, 3g will be working, isn't that right?

No, it will not. It will flash just like any other ROM. Right now, it is CM10.1 and ubuntu in a chroot shell. It will erase system. Data, you will have to erase (just like you do on most other ROMs). My PC is back. Thanks for the help. Will work on Ubuntu again today.Say, suppose we have an installable build. Will the flashing erase the whole sdcard, or just the system partitions (/system, /data etc)? I mean we have to bacup docs, movies, music and so on?
