| foormea | hi, i'm trying to install ubuntu on my nexus7. using the graphical installer ubuntu-nexus7-installer, copy seemed to get stuck for over half an hour. i see from the manual steps here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Nexus7/Installation that 2mn should be about what it needs to flash the device. can you confirm how long i should wait, roughly? | 12:33 |
| Tasssadar | I am pretty sure that 30m is too long, something probably went wrong | 12:35 |
| foormea | okay. i'm doing it with the manual steps and it's already flashing for 6-7-8mn | 12:38 |
| foormea | nothing showing on shell, dmesg says nothing bad either | 12:39 |
| foormea | maybe i'll try from another computer.. | 12:39 |
| foormea | otherwise i'll revert the mofo to android :D (if i can flash it back haha) | 12:40 |
| Tasssadar | how big is the image after you extract it from .gz? | 12:40 |
| foormea | 700mb | 12:40 |
| Tasssadar | chm | 12:40 |
| foormea | chm? | 12:40 |
| Tasssadar | it got big again, fastboot has problems flashing that big images | 12:40 |
| foormea | sending 'userdata' (705701 KB)... | 12:41 |
| Tasssadar | not sure from which size it is, but it was something around 700mb | 12:41 |
| foormea | ha. okay... should i file a bug? | 12:41 |
| Tasssadar | I am not "from ubuntu", maybe they already know | 12:41 |
| Tasssadar | I can upload you older image, which should work | 12:42 |
| Tasssadar | and then you can apt-get upgrade | 12:42 |
| foormea | that'd be great. hang on i'd have to setup account for you. unless you don't mind sharing via google drive? | 12:42 |
| Tasssadar | actually the image vanhoof uploaded for me a while ago is stil there | 12:43 |
| Tasssadar | http://people.canonical.com/~vanhoof/tassadar/UbuntuNexus7.tar.gz | 12:43 |
| foormea | thanks Tasssadar i really appreciate it | 12:44 |
| Tasssadar | I hope that it is small enough, because I did not try flashing it via fastboot | 12:45 |
| foormea | how did you do it? | 12:45 |
| Tasssadar | I am dualbooting it, so I just extract the image somewhere | 12:45 |
| foormea | ohh... i'm pretty new to the non-standard android world, do you have a link to recommend to do this? | 12:46 |
| Tasssadar | I fail to parse the end of that sentence - you want a link to see how did I do it? | 12:47 |
| foormea | yes, please | 12:47 |
| foormea | :) | 12:47 |
| Tasssadar | http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2011403 | 12:47 |
| foormea | i meant, do you have a link that you recommend. sorry, i'm not a native english speaker. maybe you're not either. anyway. thanks! | 12:48 |
| Tasssadar | no, I am not :) | 12:48 |
| foormea | i'll try the dual boot later. for now i'll try the full ubuntu. if i can flash it. | 12:49 |
| foormea | i got this nexus7 offered as a present, trying to find a use for it. i'm not convinced so far. | 12:50 |
| Tasssadar | well, it's made for consuming content - movies, youtube, whatever. But I use it also as "textbook" in school, and sometimes instead of a computer - with ubuntu, or you can just chroot into ubuntu from android | 12:54 |
| Tasssadar | I've got iPad 2 for a month, to try what is is like, and I could't not find a decent use for it - it is too big (and fragile) to carry and use in school, you have to pay $99 _and_ have Mac computer just to develop an app for it... | 12:56 |
| foormea | easily watching movies via sshfs/nfs/something like that without copying the stuff onto the tablet beforehand would be a great achievement that i've found no easy way to do with android | 12:57 |
| gildean | foormea: subsonic | 12:57 |
| Tasssadar | I think alpha/beta xbmc for android is around already | 12:57 |
| foormea | oh yeah? | 12:57 |
| Tasssadar | http://xbmc.org/natethomas/2012/12/02/xbmc-12-frodo-beta-2-now-with-android/ | 12:58 |
| foormea | i'll try xbmc and subsonic. after i'm done playing with ubuntu :D | 12:58 |
| gildean | with subsonic you can stream music/videos from your homecomputer/server to your mobile device and transcode to the bitrate available atm | 12:58 |
| foormea | gildean: cool. what protocol does it use? | 12:59 |
| gildean | it's basically just a http(s) server with a transcoder like ffmpeg in the backend | 12:59 |
| gildean | it works well imo | 13:00 |
| foormea | i'll give it a try. thanks!! | 13:01 |
| foormea | Tasssadar: i can flash with the image you gave me! | 13:03 |
| Tasssadar | how big it is after decompressing? | 13:05 |
