absolutely but I think that the number of ubuntu devices will hardly be as big as android.
I guess it should just work. well actually it will still require arm packages no? I have 0 experience with ubuntu on tabs. the only (hopefully) problem I have left now is that my ubuntu has sip 4.13.3 were the android env has sip 4.10.2 and they have incompatible Api. I m trying now to downgrade my ubuntu sip. the problem is that sip 4.10.2 requires python 2.6.x any suggestions? ciao Marco Bernasocchi (mobile) http://opengis.ch On May 23, 2013 8:38 PM, "Larry Shaffer" <lar...@dakotacarto.com> wrote: > Hi Marco, > > On Wed, May 22, 2013 at 3:45 PM, Marco Bernasocchi < > ma...@bernawebdesign.ch> wrote: > >> almost there, opefully unmatched sip veesions is the last hurdle. >> > Am I to understand that this is directly related to running Python under > ARM, not necessarily an Adroid issue?
