Real Ubuntu (12.04) on Atrix.

[Hai_Duong]

I have my Atrix now 1month and searched for a option to flash real ubuntu to our Atrix. I saw videos, threads, mods and many many more but there is no real Ubuntu on the Atrix.

Video how i want to use my Atrix: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6eEDZva1W8 (Yeah i know Atrix 2 but there is no real differents to our normal Atrix?)

Nexus 7: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Nexus7/Installation

AC100 (Tegra 2): https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/TEGRA/AC100


I know we need many skilled Devs but i think its possible and would make better use of our Atrix then a webtop 3.0 or normal webtop. I just want to say i want to install my programms (example: Chromium) out of the applications market like the real ubuntu.


What are u guys thinking ? Is it worth to have such "dreams" for our Atrix or is it just hopless that i should just forget it?

Sadly yes. But its not better then other webtop mods. After installinge and setting up it really is the same. Watch the first links from my post and u can see its really works with the latest Ubuntu version with Chromium.

Well a few things.
A) The atrix 2 is quite a bit different from the atrix one
B) saying that it would quite likely be possible to port however there is no source for the Ubuntu for android set up.
C) The nexus 7 is a native set up and would require a lot of changes to be ported to other devices just like all the other native ports.
D) I plan when I have the time to look at improving on the current web top versions of Linux, and of cause always improving our current chroot based method

Okay thanks for the reply. So that means it is only make able with the perfect source? The AC100 is a tegra device its not possible to modifie it?

About the Webtop mods I use some but I can't even use some cheap programs that's my only problem.

Thanks for some great information.
