That's the Atrix 2 (OMAP), and that's Ubuntu for Android rather than Ubuntu Phone OS.

Ubuntu for Android, as I understand it, is basically the Webtop that we've already had for some time now and uses the kernel already on the device, whereas Ubuntu Phone OS is a complete replacement for Android, but the details themselves are a bit sketchy, like what display server they're using, what kernel is supported. Wouldn't it be both ironic and disappointing if it required an ICS/JB kernel, especially since we still have a Froyo/GB kernel.

yea because it's not really a proof that it is working for our tegra phone. it's a lot different so u have to find a phone that has the same specs this but there is no one.

let's see if it will work for us that would be awesome

Yeah, he identifies the device about 10 seconds or so in, but admittedly if he didn't the only other way to identify it would be process of elimination, looking at the logo's and figuring it out that way.

Guys, there's a post of saiftheboss7 that he mention that he made a request to Mark Shuttleworth, Ubuntu's Guru. You can upvote that request so that the Ubuntu Kahuna sees that us Atrix users want the Ubuntu OS for our beloved A4G. I can't post links right now, too noob for the forum, but you can check it out in this section.

Upvote my friends, upvote and we can have a better functional phone!!!!!:good:

please don't force the devs to support our phone. just let the image release si the devs can see the source code and the system. After that we can ask to import the os to the atrix if it's possible.

Just be patience.

I think at this moment...devs are more interested in a working kernel for ICS

I don't think this will be fully working without an ICS Kernel.

 

[scanuto]

I think an effort like this worths a try, since we can aways update the userspace ubuntu packages, keeping the old kernel. I don't see why the old gingerbread kernel wouldn't work.
