Ubuntu for Android on the ASUS Transformer Prime
- by sola
I would like to use Ubuntu on my Transformer Prime in parallel with Android (not as a dual booting solution, I want to be able to switch between them instantaniously).
I am aware of the traditional chrooting/VNC solution but I heard that it performs very poorly so I would like to use Ubuntu For Android (UFA) which has been announced recently by Canonical. That looks like a polished, highly integrated solution for Android devices.
The Prime would be the ideal device for Ubuntu For Android since it has a powerful processor (Tegra3) capable of running a lot of processes in parallel on its 4 cores.
Does anyone know if Canonical or anybody else is working on supporting UFA on the ASUS Transformer Prime?
As far as I understand, the X11 driver is available for Tegra3 so, the biggest hurdle may be easily overcome.
