Ubuntu on Nexus 7 16GB - Nexus 7 General

Hello all,
If there is such topic than sorry for the spam.
I have tried to install Ubuntu on my N7 but after the install part it crashed. There was only messy background and popups that ther is something wrong with the unity and some other paths. Something like executable issues. Not sure thou.
I have searched but didn't found a thing.
If someone have any idea, please share it.
Thanks.

And also after I have reflashed it with orginal ROM it crashes. When I press power button to wakeup it doesn't do it.

First thing you should do is to reinstall Ubuntu, then report back here if it worked. I am using ubuntu on my N7 without any issues.

Try to install it from MultiRom, that's what I did and it worked fine for me.

There are two versions out at the moment. 13.04 (raring ringtail) and 13.10 (saucy salamander) release date May-02. 13.10 has the issue you describe, but the older 13.04 does not. Make for sure you have downloaded 13.04, and not 13.10. I mean, really make sure.
The link for 13.04 used to be http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-preinstalled/current/ but only has 13.10 now.
The new link for 13.04 is http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-preinstalled/last-good-image/ DOWNLOAD THIS ONE!!! Not yelling, just want no mistake.
Hope it helps you.

That might be right because I used ubuntu when 13.04 was only out, so that is the correct answer.

Thank you very much for the info. Will try and will give feedback. Thanks again!

So I have tested it and it is working. But it is very slow and there are a lot of issues. One of them is with the repositories. They are not working properly.
But overall it is running so I'll wait till there is a stable release.
Thanks again for the help.

no ways happy wth windows 7 until unless its stable and retail division out.
Stick with windows 7... windows 8 is in development mode why would you install a product that hasn't been released in Beta, RC1, and RC2? It has a new feel for it that's for sure.
Not sure why you called it a beta because it's not..

Flash v11.1.115.81

There is a new version of Adobe Flash out that I don't believe ever made it to the Play Store. It's v. 11.1.115.17, and for me is working great on the N7 and Firefox Beta. Here's the link direct from Adobe:
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/...roid/11.1.115.17/install_flash_player_ics.apk
If it was posted already, sorry in advance. I've been on vacation and haven't seen it in the Nexus Forum.

Do you guys find the Flash content very pixelated on the N7? Not sure if it's normal. I install this same version of Flash to my Galaxy Nexus this morning and I didn't see pixelation. Not sure if it's because of the small screen though.

Chrome doesn't support Flash at all, and Dolphin disabled it with JB. Firefox works fine for me, so it could be CM10.

I grabbed it off their Facebook page, they posted it a couple of weeks ago. If I was using my sgs2, which has the apk on it, I'd post it for you. But it's easy to find on their page. Maybe someone else will have it and post it. But honestly, the beta is hit or miss....I'm not fond of it. If you want to use dolphin with flash I suggest the version 8.5.1. That's the version where flash still worked on. I have the apk to that, I also saw someone post it on here recently but don't remember where... I don't know how to post an apk but I'm more than happy to send it in an email if you want.
I just downloaded Boat and it works perfectly. What a lovely surprise!
Thanks!

The awesome thing is that UbuntuOS works as smartphone OS on a mobile, but if you connect the mobile to a monitor/TV you get the full fledged ubuntu experience.

I'm chomping at the bit over here as well. I just installed the latest illusion ROM with Karam's Kitkat Gapps kit, kitkat fonts, kitkat sounds, and the Tinted status bar module for xposed. Everything works, no f/c's, and it's soooo smooth. I can't wait to get the real deal.
Do you know what sources this is built from?

Thanks OP for this! Was hoping it was a plugin instead. but this will work for now I already sort of did something like this, but just kept everything as "default" and would change the names after importing to eclipse. Would really like an eclipse plugin that would automatically create the project inside eclipse. I was planning on making one just havent gotten to it. I like this jar tho

I installed Ubuntu 14.04 and i can't get Eclipse working on it, so I'm a bit stuck. I'm really sorry but you might have to wait until the weekend.
OK do this download eclipse manually and for example eclipse Kepler and configure install the ADT bundle from zip not the link may be it would work. I was having the same problem when I upgraded too
