Ubuntu 10.10 on LG Optimus 3D xD

---

Managed to get Ubuntu 10.10 running last night on my rooted LG Optimus 3D , figured I'd post up the files I modified to get it running and a very quick guide, so here goes,

First of you'll need to root your phone, see here.

Install Busybox v1.18.4 (doesnt survive a reboot, so you'll need to reinstall it each time you boot ubuntu after a reboot, (sorry im sure this can be resolved but im an android n00b)) from here.

Then download these files.

Then follow this tutorial.

Ignore the download link on the tutorial page (I've included the correctly edited files here) and the driver installation step (you did that when you rooted the phone).

Enjoy!

EDIT:File now uploaded/linked.

Does our phone support USB OTG so that we could plugin some usb devices
Can you use a BT keyboard and mouse to control it?

Still have these files, the upload site is non-operational.

link dead...

Link please?

There is no ubuntu.rar file to download

This is the way I did it a while back and it worked perfectly. It runs whichever Linux distro you choose in a VM on top of Android and you use a VNC viewer app to access the VM. It ran pretty well, but I only tested it a couple times with Ubuntu and Backtrack.
