i have been researching this for a couple days; has anyone succesfully configured debian on 1.6 donut?from what ive gathered there are known issues with debian and 1.6. i keep going in circles trying to figure this out. i have used this site(and many others) in my research:
http://www.myhangoutonline.com/2009/11/22/install-linux-on-your-g1/
i keep getting lots of errors about line not found and debian goes into reboot cycles
TY
Check the link in my signature, I have a method that works well with 1.6.
that seems like a nice tutorial except i was wondering if you could make it so i could have a gui with ur method (i currently have an image on fat32 part) ?
lxde would be good if it worked smooth. also u mentiond apps like firefox and aircrack will work... have u tested or are u jus geussing, also is there anyway that you couldd modify amonra's recovery so that there would be 1 more option that you could nativly boot into debian like in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=444419&page=29

You can setup a GUI yourself if that is what you want, but I personally like terminal based Linux, so I see no need to spend countless hours doing such. As far as the other apps working, of course they will work, they run on debian. The issue is whether you want to give up valuable resources to try and run firefox on a G1 (it is something you would do just to say you did it, not for practicality). Aircrack will run, but you still need to work on the kernel to have it actually crack (people are working on it).

Ok so here's this application that I made in Automator for myself and I figured that if anyone wants it, it's here. This is a Mac OS X only app. What does this app do? It wipes the data and dalvik cache on the phone twice. It is quite quick and easy. What will you need to do to your Mac before running this application? You simply need to add adb to the .bash_profile path settings. (This means that from anywhere in terminal, you can type adb and run adb.) Then just put your phone into recovery mode and run this app. This is an alpha build as I have not tried it on my own phone yet. However it should work as I've coded it and it has NO potential to brick the phone
Download Here!
EDIT: Currently the program is not working, I will make a new one and upload ASAP.

Hmmm, thats a good question. (I'm just hopping in with what I know, so OP feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, which I probably am.)
From what I know, Automator is basically a workflow creation/utilization program. Do most Linux distros come packaged with anything like that, or does one exist?
This might be an alternative:
"GNU Xnee is a suite of programs that can record, replay and distribute user actions under the X11 environment. Think of it as a robot that can imitate the job you just did."

So, I am planning to install Ubuntu to run it alongside Win 7. The PC is broken now, but will be fixed in about 2 weeks. I have some questions about it, will have a lot of other when I install it, and will need tips and tricks for it.
So, I have a 1TB HD that, have 2 partitions: a 800 Gb for almot everything, and a 200 Gb partition that have most of my family personal files (music, videos, documents, photos and some other random files).
So, first question is: I want to partition my 1 TB HD so I have a good space for Windows (and programs), a good space for Ubuntu and the rest for files. How I should partition it? I can make a backup of everything, except Windows itself, but if I can keep everything on it's place, the better it is.
Second, how dual boot works exactly? After the PC boots, it will ask which OS I want or it will boot with a default OS and I have to do something to boot on the other one?
Third, as I Android phone owner, I need to set up everything for do Android things (ADB and related), PC Companion and Sony Update Service (Sony Mobile things). What I should do?
Forth, as Windows is the most used OS, almost everything is optimized to it. For programs, how it install things? Just like Windows (a .exe file for Ubuntu) or there is something like a store, where I just choose what to download, and then it do the job by itself. Or a mix from both? (just like Android, Market and .apk files).
Fifth, I saw there a lot of themes for it. How they work for a user? There is someway to quickly switch between them or something like that?
Sixth, coming from a 15 years experience with Windows, and 1 year from Android, I will get easily lot on it?
I think it's everything by now. As I said, when I install it, I will have a lot more of thing I don't know, so I come here again.
Thanks in advance, Felipe
I'm in a similar situation. ~15 years on Windows, power user / basically a MCSE without the certification. I've dabbled w/ linux over the years but never made the transition. I decided I wanted to dual boot vista and ubuntu. So far, it's going pretty smoothly. At first, it was difficult to configure things the way I like, but here's what I've done:
Although I liked Unity fine, I run Cinnamon instead of Unity. It's a bit more windows-like without being KDE (which I didn't care for). I installed a few tools, one is called Tweak, and the other is called Compiz Config Manager. These let you modify things a bit easier.

I suppose I should have tried to answer a few of your specific questions, too.

I'm sure some expert will chime in too, but for me, just to explore Ubuntu, I installed it from inside of Windows. (So windows is "host", whatever that means). My Ubuntu boot can see all my windows files. I think I allocated about 20-30 gigs of HDD space for Ubuntu.

After the BIOS screen, you get a screen that lets you select which OS to boot to, Windows or Ubuntu. You can probably set the default for after timeout.

I don't really do any android dev so I didn't install the SDK yet. The other stuff, presuming those programs have a linux counterpart, you should be okay. Just google how to install in ubuntu from source.

There is a ubuntu software center now that is similar to the Android Market, makes it pretty easy. You can also use the command apt-get install to install things from the command line. (generally you can google for it, like google for "apt-get install google music manager" and someone will have posted the answer in a forum. Be prepared to do a lot of this kind of discovery to get yourself up and running.

Your desktop manager (I use Cinnamon) will probably have different themes available. I haven't messed with that too much, but those two programs I mentioned previously will help you customize the visual experience.

If you're willing to put the effort in at the beginning, it's not that hard. Google is your friend.

Oh, I also found the #ubuntu-beginners IRC room on freenode to be helpful, but sometimes you have to ask your question and wait around a while before anyone is there to answer.
Just use wubi (windows ubuntu installer)
it partions and sets up dual boot perfectly. But one suggestion, I think you should wait for the Ubuntu 12.04 release to be finished. It is currently in a final beta but it will release later this month

Yes, that was the name of the thing I used,wubi. Very straightforward.
As for waiting for the new Ubuntu... too late for me, but might be a good idea if the release date is in the near future.
Oh, and another thing: How updates works?

There is an update manager that seems to run in the background, it pops up for me from time to time when some software needs to be updated.
You can also do apt-get update. Google for this: "The Debian GNU/Linux FAQ
Chapter 9 - Keeping your Debian system up-to-date" That will take you to a good info page about it.

No. I mean, on a big update (11.10 to 12.04), it's like a Windows Update Service, that may require a reboot, but will keep the system there?

You have several ways of doing this.
1. You can go to the Software Center. That's like the Market/Play Store on your Android device. Search or find what you want and click install. You will not find everything since Ubuntu/Linux depends on sources. The Software Center does have the Ubuntu source and that's about it. You can add more if you want to.
2. You can use the Terminal.
"Sudo apt-get install (enter package name here)", so if you want to install Opera (which will already be in the Ubuntu app source i believe) then type "sudo apt-get install opera". That's it.
If you want to remove it (or another app) then type "sudo apt-get purge opera", and if you want to remove all of the app content then you type "sudo apt-get autoremove opera" (after purge). You can also do this with one command, and that would look something like this: "sudo apt-get purge opera -y && sudo apt-get autoremove opera -y".
3. You can use Synaptics (not installed by default anymore). With Synaptics you'll get a list and a more advanced approch to app installations. You can sort by date, size, versions, packages that's missing, broken packages and many more.
I will personally recommend you using the Software Center for app installation, but the terminal is really great to do things fast. But it takes some learning so just start by remembering some easy commands like how to install and remove apps.
I would answer your questions, but I have to get up early in the morning. For now, see this. http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/ I will try to help you tomorrow.
Hi
So I want to learn how to make Android apps in Android Atudio with Udacity's Android Fundamentals course. I have no knowledge or experience in app-development and very very veeeeerry basic programming knowledge. The problem is though that there are many error messages everywhere and I already searched on the internet a few times but have newer gotten a working answer to the problems I'm having. So I thought i could ask the people at the xda-forum for help
I am going to post the problems one after another (posting the next problem after the one before is fixed), because maybe with one answer multiple problems get fixed.
Also I completely reinstalled Android Studio just to be sure I didn't create any more problems myself.
The first problem is that there is an error message saying:
failed to find Build Tools revision and then the Version specified in the build.gradle
I know that I need to change the SDK versions in the build.gradle file but I cant find where you can look up the Build Tools Version currently installed. By the way I want to compile for android Marshmallow hoping that it also works for Android Lollipop if that helps in any way
I am thanking in advance to everyone trying to help me

Did you check on the Sdk manager whether you have the needed build tools installed?
I don't comprehend what the correct name is for s highlight this way, yet I will simply depict it.
I am utilizing android studio and I included some java classes from an alternate venture. Presently it says
"missing bundle articulation: whatever". Be that as it may, there is not alternative in the mistake popup to simply naturally include the missing bundle articulation. I know it appears to be lethargic to not sort it, but rather I get a kick out of the chance to do things rapidly.
At the point when there is a mistake this way, is there a route for android studio to naturally included the required lines of code like obscuration would?
For Windows/Linux, you can go to File -> Settings -> Editor -> General -> Auto Import -> Java and make the following changes:
change "Insert imports on paste" dropdown value to "All"
check "Add unambiguous imports on the fly" option
On a Mac, do the same thing in Android Studio -> Preferences
That way, as you type, or when you copy and paste, many imports will be added automatically. Those that aren't are ambiguous; put the cursor on the class, press alt+enter and select which version of the class you meant.
