[ubuntu-uk] Ubuntu on android.
Does anyone know of an emulator type application which could run native Ubuntu programs on my Samsung galaxy s2, running android? Perhaps even a way to dual boot it to run the desktop edition or maybe meego? Dave -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Depending on your definition of fun, that will not be fun. 2. Use a VNC client on the S2 to connect to a normal Ubuntu desktop.

XDA hackers have apparently got Ubuntu,or at least a modern Gnome-based distribution running on the HTC Desire HD as here: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/05/install-ubuntu-on-the-htc-desire-hd/ but it isn't easy. What applications do you want to run and do they have an equivalent on Android? s/ -- Twitter: @sfgreenwood Is this your sanderling? -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

There are a number of systems around where you can install an ARM Ubuntu inside a chroot environment, run it with a VNC server as it's primary X output and then connect to it using an Android VNC client application. It is not a particularly fast method but it works. Grant. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
