Quoting something I said 6 months ago won't wash with me either...That guide you linked to is not correct with everything. When you go to install some of those packages you'll get some errors, try it...As far as java you can just use synaptic package manager to un-install open java which at the time I didn't know was able to do. Removing it manually still works just fine. Cyanogenmods wiki is wrong in a lot of ways btw for Ubuntu 11.10 just like that guide you just linked to. Seriously grow the **** up and learn your **** before you start posting. You obviously have never compiled anything android related on linux in your entire life. If you did something correctly it's probably because of this guide here but your dumb ass just won't admit it like many of the other trolls on this thread. If your such a great android and linux expert then show me your development threads or stfu because you have nothing to show for it.
This guide has helped more than a few people and I've been told so on more than a few occassions. If that bothers you then you need your head checked.
BTW nice to see you again Firerat! You couldn't stand that you got perma banned before because of the exact same thing your doing right now. How about round two?
I usually dont get in the middle of anything here at xda because there are alot of people who feel the need to voice their opinion on ever little thing (even when not knowing what is accurate or not) but this is getting stupid. Sparksco if you had any knowledge with linux other than the usual *I installed ubuntu in a VM or dual boot to learn some android, so I must be the most hardcore MOFO out there now* crap, you would know that in Linux there is several different ways to get everything done. Some are easy, some are not, some are preferred by most, some are not. It is pretty stupid to argue back and forth about it and really shows that you, above everything else, have a serious problem with admitting that others are right even if that means you are not necessarily wrong.
You and I have had it out a little before and it resulted in you insulting me and my knowledge of kernel compiling, toolchain usage, and something else Im sure. Its getting rather old and I know that my years of Linux usage and admin speaks for my knowledge. I dont come on here and try and grow my e-peen with stupid attempts at proving others wrong and starting some pointless flamewar. I dont have an ego and I know that I do not know everything there is about linux and will probably never will but I do know that when I am proven wrong or told another way to do something, I dont flame the **** out of them and insult their knowledge or ability. That is why people troll you, you get to the point where you make no sense and attack anything that has opposition to what you say. Seriously man, as a person who cares nothing about who you are or how smart you think you are and would like to see you learn and grow with XDA and the information you can find here, please stop your ego-driven rants about your crap. If you need to feel better about yourself or some boast in confidence, XDA shouldnt be the place you are looking.
EDIT: Flame me all you want, I dont care and know you are about too. I know what I am doing or I wouldnt be here doing it. You probably saw that when you forked my repo to get my source right? It would make sense that you would delete it after the fact as I dont see you having anything to contribute just wanted to either check up on me or grab my source. Its all good, thats why its there
