Hi John

Check out this post for some info on UMPC and MID versions with download
links.

http://www.umpcportal.com/2008/10/ubuntu-umpc-ubuntu-mid-810-launch-time-to-join-the-party

Unfortaunely Ubuntu-mid does work on MIDs yet. I dont understand why (Intel
drives not available yet?) but thats for Canonical and Intel to sort out.
Hopefuly very soon!

With the new Intrepid release, yesterday, do I just need to get the USB
version of that dist. and use that to install it on my Samsung Q1 Ultra?  Do
I need to do anything special, or get a Mobile/UMPC specially cooked version

 It's probably possible to convert image formats (but I didn't do it
 myself so don't have advice on this), however you might be more in luck
 to try to rebuild a vbox image directly: virtual-mobile-builder is the
 tool we used to build the image for kvm; it's based on
 ubuntu-vm-builder and both of these tools should access as parameter
 the type of virtual machine to create.

 The instructions to create kvm images with v-m-b are at:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Cases/UMEinstall

 You can try:
sudo simple-mobile-builder --platform menlow-lpia-ume vbox hardy

 (I didn't test vbox support in ubuntu-vm-builder for a while though.)

Re: problem installing mobile ubuntu

2008-06-27 Thread Tobin Davis
Sounds like a classic issue of improperly writing to the usb stick.  To
copy the image to the usb stick (assuming /dev/sdb for the stick), use
"dd bs-1024 if= of=/dev/sdb".   Writing an image to a usb
stick is like filling out a grid on a checkerboard.  If you don't give
it the 1024 block size parameter, it writes one way (row by row), but
with the bs=1024, it writes column by column.  

In my own early testing, I had ~40% success rate with just dd if=
of=, but with the bs=1024, I have boosted that to %99.

Hello, I have a Samsung Q1, I downloaded the Mobile Ubuntu release version from 
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/moblin/releases/8.04
 
I extracted the files in the image and also I prepared a USB stick for booting 
with this image.
 
The USB boots, I pressed "Enter" to start the installation and after several OS 
messages the boot proccess stops, the last message was "will mount root from 
/dev/sdb" and that's all, 
 
I tried also with other image file that I found in 
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/moblin/hardy/mccaslin_samsungq1ultrafull/current with 
the same problem.
 
Am I doing something wrong?
 
My Q1 has 2 paritions, one with with 30Gb and Widnows Vista, and the second

This often happens on non-i386 architectures where i386 has built but
the other architecture hasn't, or vice versa (because i386 is
responsible for building Architecture: all packages). In this case, we
see that xulrunner is waiting for a build-dependency on i386:

  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xulrunner/1.8.1.4-2ubuntu4/+build/398660

This build-dependency will never arrive, because ecj-bootstrap no longer
exists in Gutsy (it was removed two weeks ago). Alexander, perhaps this
should use ecj instead now?

Missing dependency when installing fsets on menlow-lpia target

2007-09-27 Thread Levinson, Aaron N
I got the latest image-creator from Git and created a new menlow-lpia
project and then a target.  However, when I went to add fsets to the
target, it complained about a missing dependency for mobile-basic-flash,
which is installed by the ubuntu-mobile fset.  mobile-basic-flash
depends on libxul0d, and libxul0d depends on libxul-common.
Unfortunately, libxul0d depends on a newer version of libxul-common than
exists in the repository.  The version of libxul-common that libxul0d
depends on is 1.8.1.4-2ubuntu4, but only 1.8.1.4-2ubuntu3 is available.

It is possible to work around the issue by modifying
/var/lib/dpkg/status and /var/lib/dpkg/available such that the version
for libxul-common in these files now appears to be the right one (that
is, change "1.8.1.4-2ubuntu3" to "1.8.1.4-2ubuntu4" for the
libxul-common package).
