pls i have not cyanogen mod, but i have custom rom, i think Modaco, tried nexus based tutorials, but cant connect my ubuntu with vnc, whats wrong?
Do DHD users need to recompile their kernal to enable loop back devices the same as the EVO4G?
I am currently using Official HTC 2.6.32.21-g3d0aaff should it be the same instructions as compiling a kernal with CONFIG_DEV_BLK_LOOP=y for the EVO4G for the DHD aswell?

I have chrooted ubuntu working on my desire hd a recompile of the kernel was not needed like the evo4g.

1 LOOP = is for short ubuntu in android we want real ubuntu NATIVE
2 DHD kan easy do ubuntu.even beter then hd2 as spec are beter.
3 We only need some kind of boot img with some options enabled like config_vt=y ( i dont know wat's needed more * )
4 CONFIG_DEV_BLK_LOOP=y is needed to chroot a os in a os
From wat i read online this are the option to enable in .config in your source to build.
CONFIG_INPUT=y
CONFIG_VT=y
CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE=y
But as i say i dont know, its only wat i read

Just out of curiousity...the Android OS is linux based...what would be the benefit of running ubuntu on the DHD (or any phone for that matter)?
I am currently running Ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop and there IS benefits there, but I just don't see how they would be related to a smartphone application except for the (pardon the reference) "geekiness" of it.

just for some points , not that you need them.
1 download a 10G torrent for me on you phone without crashing.
2 let just forget all the apps you get with ubuntu alone
3 please run some python for me and i do mean full support
4 greasemonkey support
5 this are just some of the things
6 and that all on a smal smartphone instead of a 11inch notebook.
But just for the recored not that you need them , but sure i do.
