kernel 2.6.36, Which benefites can we Get it? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I actually saw that kernel 2.6.36 has been installed on Galaxy S on CM7?
and i am wondered what the use of having this??
is it possible to install virtual box now with this kernal?for example?installing windows XP,7?????

Al r noobs like me?

I guess this is a startingpoint. I could not find any spesifics on the android fork. http://www.h-online.com/open/features/What-s-new-in-Linux-2-6-36-1103009.html

Or maybe this, for someone with patience

Haha, dude.
I didn't even read that. But no. and It is called a KERNEL, not a kernal

more or less
kernal=kernel

Sorry, but no. kernal, is the operating system used by commodore 64, kernel is the core, or main component if you will, of the linux operating system. Not a trivial difference.

Yes it's possible. You just have to port it to xperia and make all drivers for xperia and you're done. Not much work isn't it
I want Windows 7 on my X1 as well. Then have VMWare installed so that I can have WinXP, Linux, Solaris running as VM. ;p

Hi,
as funny it may be.... and of course this sounds like a silly question...
....but as you might know WebOS is based on a linux kernel and root system.
At least very similar to Android OS.
So once there is a usable linux kernel with drivers for the main components it could be done.
Sure there's much to do to make this happen, but never say never
EDIT:
Just wanted to add this interesting page: http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Main_Page

I will get right to work on this! I just have to finish up my Xperia Hover Board....works great...just keeps killing the battery.....slowing down my Windows Server 2003 Application.....
Are you serious? -.-
Is there anyone who can make some drivers for x1 here?Maybe he will give us a great suprise ~
???????????
What would be the reason to work very hard (if at all possible) almost rebuilding from scratch an mobile OS when you already have one good enough? Maybe for the plaetora of applictions available for web OS? Or would it be for the pure pleasure of completly original error of a new almost perfect OS (but not exactly).
I am in for beta testing

aNYONE WORKING mAEMO (oR FUTRE mEEGO) TO WORK ON x1?

Any posibilities?
first lets get android to woks properly on X1, before going for Mego or maemo.
write the title normal then people might even consider coming here...
why work on android when meego/maemo is way much better.
what is meego / maemo???
maemo is based on linux (nokia n900) meego.... successor of maemo

The new Nokia OS, N900 has maemo

Maybe because android porting is already at 3/4 while maemo is 0.

Thats just your personal opinion.
I say yes, but not same people as android, so android porting wont slowdown. And if same developer would do it, i'd say first make android port good enough for everyday use.
DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THIS WILL WORK ON THE X1??

The n900 version will boot into the console, with correct kernel and settings, this is probably not what you want.
Any linux will work, the kernel needs some work yet. You will not have a fully working phone.

chroot into android?

Hi!
This may be a ridiculous question, but I'm curious and haven't yet been able to find a good answer to it.
Given that it's possible to chroot into Ubuntu from WebOS, on the touchpad, is it possible to also chroot into android from WebOS? Would such a process be very much more difficult than it is with Ubuntu?
Found this, which may or may not be relevant:
http://www.slideshare.net/tetsu.koba/android-on-ubuntu-for-developer
So it looks like I'm not the only one who's thought along these lines, but all such projects seem to have died. Is android that tricky, or is the interest simply not there? Ubuntu chroot was possible, and there's some work being done on getting ubuntu and arch running natively. Ditto, of course, for android. Is the horror involved that much greater?

Like I said, I have no idea about anything Just thinking that maybe the progress made since october by the CM7/9 people would make the job easier.
mm
ok, Im going to try this on a Linux Ubuntu machine first and see how it goes..
if that works I'll try it out on the tp with cm7

Good luck! Will you use android for x86 in that case?
I'm wondering if it's a problem that android doesn't use X

there's a lot of tutorials that you can learn from, just search first of all if you want to build roms from source, you need linux on your pc and here's a very good link that can help you get started http://xda-university.com/

whats tht?
-Rik[Rittik]
it is an installer of ubuntu..it creates a dual boot menu so you can choose at the startup the os to run but it can be uninstalled like an application in windows from the control panel..Here you can find more infos
http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/windows-installer
i also suggest you to use a previous ubuntu version if you want to build from source cause the latest are only experimentally supported
yeA i got that ...but i guess all the time u unistall then install again..it dowoads 700mb..which aint a small thing

Buy a Ubuntu CD, or download Ubuntu.
No, you don't need a install and uninstall.Anyway, just tell your dad i need a dualboot. You need to prove your Ubuntu skills, that's what i do to get dualbooting in my dad's laptop.

[Request] Custom Kernel

I miss the days where you could easily see custom kernels for android phones.
Sigh... anyway, I'm not sure if this is the right thread to post this so feel free to move it in case ?
Now to the point... I understand we need to get the sources to even have any chance for this to happen. Does anyone know if this is in the foreseeable future or do we need to email or ask Huawei?
Kernel sources are already available but development on P20 pro is a bit ... sluggish.

@reppi - would you happen to have links for the sources?
I have been researching how to create my own kernel and most guides require me to have linux or such. Isn't there a way to do it via Windows 10?
