Here is Kubuntu Mobile for the Gen 8 tablets. I decided to try to get it working because I really want a linux distro up and running on my tablet but gnome 2.0 just doesn't cut it on a touchscreen device. Well, I've been working at this for a while now ad what do I have to show for it? Almost nothing I have gotten some stuff working though so I thought I would share.
Before you even think about trying this out there are a few things you should keep in mind:
-It is in a very early stage of testing and will probably not really work at all
-I am not a developer (I'm a 15 year old kid from Canada, eh) so unless I receive some help, this project probably won't be able to go anywhere
-YOU MUST HAVE SDE INSTALLED!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What is working:
-The touchscreen
-You can login now
What is not working:
-the touchscreen doesn't click properly
-virtual keyboard
-everything else
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
Before you even attmpt to install this realize that at teh moment you can't really use it at all seeing can't click anything
I REPEAT: YOU CANT CLICK ANYTHING!!!!!!!!
okay, now that you know that, here we go.
(1) Install the SDE (its easy to do, you can find guides elsewhere)
(2) Download my edited .img file from the download section below
(3) Press power button ad then quickly hold down the volume - button until you get the boot menu. Use the volume + and - to navigate the menu and select the recovery system menu (press the power button to select it) Then navigate to "update firmware" option and press the power button again, plug in your archos device into your computer and drag my rootfs.img file onto the root of your Archos device, replacing the one that is already there.
(4) Once the transfer completes, press the power button again. It will say update failed, ignore that.
(5) Reboot your device and hold down the volume - button again. This time select the developer edition entry and Kubuntu will boot!
(6) tap the screen in frustration because nothing will happen when you try to click.

If anyone has any ideas on how to get stuff working that would be awesome!
The Login screen don't have the "accessibility" options? because in there you have a buton to make a keyboard appear ^^
That would be really nice if that would work !!
Good luck, I'll be looking forward for your work.

No, thats whats so frustrating. Maybe there's a config file I could edit to make it appear?
Or maybe use another login screen (if it's possible ^^)
Hey I am 15 years old too!
I am a KDE lover, so I'll try it. I think we can install a virtual keyboard or edit the KDM (login manager) config so it autostart a virtual keyboard (the Matchbox keyboard is a good one)
If we get working something useful writing it to https://wiki.kubuntu.org/ARM/Archos101it will be good
A little more progress...
Okay, so I did what luisivan said and it worked! WHen you boot up the archos it now auto-logsin to a user called "user" and the password is "pass". But it seams with every succes there is are ten more prblems that have to be solved becasue no matter what you do you just can't click the ouse! The thouchscreen works but when you tap on something the mouse doesn't click. It gets stranger, if you wait a while the mouse does click, and then STAYS clicked forever! BWAAAAA.
OH well.
btw, I'm uploading the new rootfs.img file now so it will be up in a few hours (the upload speeds on my ISP sucks)
Thanks for your help
Upload complete!
The upload is FINALLY finished. Feel free to download it and try it out. Remember, Almost nothing works. If you have some great ideas on how to get stuff working (like the click function in n the touch screen or wifi although I haven't tested if wifi works or not yet) Just let me know!

I need to know how the .img file reacts on your devices! Any brave testers willing to try it out?
can you provide a mirror to a site that will let me download it and not have to sign in.

Sorry it took so long, it kept on failing so I decided just to use dropbox instead.

Hi, I was just wondering do you have full hardware video acceleration working on kubuntu?
Also I was just wondering why are there touchsreen issues?
Thanks.

Graphics acceleration is not possible atm because no one has compiled the driver to work under linux and thats a bit pot of my league. The guy who is trying to get ubutnu working on gen 8 tablets is having the same touchscreen problem and I still have't figured out what is causing it. Anyone got any tips?

Our Gen8 Devices's Touchscreens are connected over a kind of "usb-host" i think
Maybe you should look in the Archos (free) Kernel Source how the Touchscreen is connected (in Software section)

Update 09-22-2009 just now (4:02 pm GMT)
My bad on previous upload, it was the test version which had Bootlauncher all messed up.
Uploaded the correct one. (third one's a charm, right?)
This is basically an Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM for Iolite with the most HTC Mega packages, but now fully corrected, regarding all known issues including Bluetooth, Wifi, Camera and Album issues.
Features:
This is much similiar to the ROM i made available here, but now fully fixed with some addons, therefore, deserving a different thread.
Download the ROM by clicking here.
NOW FIXED AND UPLOADED ONCE MORE - I will not be uploading anymore. Sorry for 3 versions.
Useful software for your Iolite here.
My custom made theme for TF2D direct link here.
Known bugs:
MSTag not working;
"Finger-mouse" does not exist for build 23016, so don't ask.
This ROM has the most HTC Mega's packages in it. However, there were some of them that either had to be completely removed or replaced by Iolite ones in order to work properly.
Had to add some Iolite packages aswell, 'cause HTC Mega doesn't have some of the Iolite's features (like the scroll navigation button) and therefore some Iolite packages were required to be included.
Vote. And donate too.
Copyrights on my screenshots and my custom bootscreen and TF2D theme, therefore you are not allowed to use it without my consent.
Screenshots:
This ROM doesn't start in my iolite. It flashed ok but then after auto reseting it stuck at the installation process. I soft reset it and it began installing in a strange way... flashing between bootscreen and window installation srceen. After insallation process it stuck at the boot screen. I reflashed it but the same story.
same problem as post above my friend will go back to your last one

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Try holding the pen down a little longer... Some delay seems to occur under File Explorer...
This occurs 'cause I had to implement some Iolite packages and sometimes they conflict with each other, thus resulting in small touch delays under some menus.
As for Bluetooth, it's working. The icon doesn't show up, but you can turn Bluetooth on and off at Connections and sync it with other devices.
Best regards,
great rom
bugs:delays in some programs as mentioned before
bluetooth don't work from comm manager (can't turn on bluetooth) but working from settings>bluetooth.and also car kit mode opens navi panel but don't open bluetooth automatically
also wi-fi not working from comm manager but i used g77 wifi fix and now it's working.grrrrrrreat job.i'll keep testing and keep you updated.

Regarding Bluetooth not working from Comm Manager, I cannot fix that.
Regarding Bluetooth not starting once you go Car Kit Mode, Bluetooth starts, it's just the icon that doesn't show up.
Regarding Wi-fi, once more I thank g77 for his work. Great man. Had to be "tuga"...
Best regards and keep up the testing,

No need, a new one was just posted by me.
I just reset my touchpad. (doctor + on device data wipe). My touchpad used to 14 gb before this now it shows 12gb. Any suggestions?
did you install touchdroid android, or modify the partitions in any way?
also, check your installed apps/preware veifry app space usage
I tried that chroid ipk and thats it thats why I doctered my device because I wouldent let me use uberkernel anymore.
curious...do you know how to use novaterm?
No idea man...
blerg...the big problem i have with webOS doctor is that it doesnt restore the partition table...it doesnt even touch it...so im thinking that either something modified your partition, or you can try to reinstall 3.0.2 again...
if you knew how to use novaterm, we could check the partition tables to see if theyre valid, but if you dont have the sdk/pdk set up, its not worth it to do it if you dont know how to use it
Is there a toutorial I can follow that can help redo my partitons?
i TOTALLY do not recommended doing that! As far as I know, that is the only surefire method to bricking your touchpad if you miss a single character on the command line.
Id say google it, but you might be better off taking the 2gb hit and wait for some partition guides to come available. Most of the advanced nova stuff is on webosinternals.com and the palm SDK site, so you cam start your research there.
Also ask some other 16gb users who can use nova to post the size/locations of their partitions, that way you have a reference point
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
Thanks man... ill try that do you think CM7 will rest the partitions.

highly, unlikely, if anything you will end up with LESS spaace on your webOS partition because CM will need to reallocate partition space for its own use
My Touchpad shows only 12,6 gb too, but it've been that way all along. Other strange thing was that i wasn't able to update from 3.0 to 3.0.2 by OTA, it just showed me "your device is up to date", had to use Doctor. Hope that all those things are just a software hickup, not a damn hardware malfunction.

wow, that is strange... i hope it isnt a hardware defect either...unless webOS 3.x.x takes up 2gb
heres how you can check (make sure you have palm SDK, novaterm and a calculator handy )
-connect TP via usb straight to your pc (no usb hubs!)
-on the TP, either hit cancel or do nothing, do not enter usb mode! you dont need dev mode either.
-load up novaterm
-hit connect
-type "df -h" (without the quotes)
-add up the size totals, and see whatcha got!
if possible, please post results, im curious to see if its hardware or software
I have the same issue.. I will try it out once I get home later today

I've got some problems with novaterm - it shows an error (which could be ignored) after every keypress, it doesn't scroll proper, ant it doesn't allow me to copy/paste. I've made a screensot of the beginning of that long output thing, here
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21304732/unt.png
BTW. i've found that it's quite common: here is the thread of a guy who has 12.6 gigs too http://forums.precentral.net/hp-touchpad/298469-where-my-16gb.html
I also had 12.6 GB free space when I received my TP. But I was able to update it to 3.0.2 via OTA without any problems. Though, the free space was still 12.6 GB after the update.
I have a 32gb only showing 23.5 gb available. It seems to lose 2gb each time I do webos doctor. Hopefully there's someway to reset its partitioning.
I'm only showing 12 Gb as well.
Here's what I show in Novaterm:

charging mode is disabled and fuel guage isn't working so we can't tell battery level in android yet, you probably keep getting music app because camera button is currently mapped to loading music app, we'll correct this sometime, I'm not sure if mic is working yet.

just turn off your phone and hold end call + answer call for ten second after that release the keys (even no logo show up) and wait until android boot on your phone ! (it may take 2 min to boot android)
i can confirm it, try to flash even the bootloader with fota.

my girlfriend just got this phone a month ago, and she dropped it yesterday. theres a little crack on the glass near the nav keys, and now they do not work. i saw a edit for the build.prop to enable on screen nav keys, so i edited the build.prop, and rebooted. now it shows the boot animation, then i get a black screen. i know nothing really about LG phones. im only familiar with motorola devices. i have the original build.prop file saved. i tried to abd push it to system but it says its only mounted as readable. the phone will charge while off, and i can get as far as the red triangle android. i only run ubuntu computers. i do not have a windows PC in my house. what are my options here?
Just a question .
Is your device rooted and has unlocked bootloader ??
What version are you using for the Android ? I guess it should be JB.
Onscreen overlay buttons can be used but It probably needs to be rooted in order to allow it.
And your device seems to have been lost in bootloop. ("Soft Brick")

All I did was root it so I could write system files. I enabled read/write with my file explorer before i changed anything. I did not unlock the boot loader. It is stock 4.1.2 I believe from the factory. I've been searching the net for 2 days now for a restore method on a Linux base with no good results. Like I said in the OP I'm only familiar with Motorola devices really, which have tons of Linux support. If I must I could borrow a windows laptop and go from there. I'm just hazy on which methods are best to use. I want a factory restored fresh out of the box install.
I have no idea about Linux based method , right now. But for a windows base machine you can use LGNPST method for restoring a device back to Box .

So I restored the phone with LGNPST on a friends windows machine. Was a little tricky to get it all installed right, but after 3 attempts it finally worked great.
So more or less what I'm looking for now is a good method for soft keys? I believe the one I tried that soft bricked the phone was for ICS, which obviously won't work. I'd really prefer a app over a mod so the screens resolutions don't get messed up. Anybody have any recommendations? Something that has a trigger sort of like pie I think would be best so its not in the way on the screen.

Search for LMT here on XDA. It's pie with more customization options. Works great.

Sounds good. I'll check it out. Not worried about custom stuff really since my girls hard keys are broken. Just need something functional with home and a back button, so she doesn't have to reboot every time she opens anything.

That will work for you. I have my frequently used apps on it too... makes a nice quick app launcher that's hidden when you don't need it to clean up the home screen.
