I'd like to start a list of programs that work and custimazation tips so that we can all get the most out of our webtop!
Visit this thread to get full Ubuntu working on the webtop:
[MOD] Full Ubuntu on the Atrix (now fully automated)
Before installing or modifying make sure that you don't (or any dependencies) upgrade: (as per Sogarth)
Be careful upgrading any of the -mot/~mot packages, as that can break functionality. I'm still compiling a list of which packages can be upgraded versus which can be left alone.
Can be upgraded with loss of functionality:
libnautilus-extension1-1:2.26.2-0ubuntu1-mot1
nautilus-1:2.26.2-0ubuntu1-mot1
nautilus-data-1:2.26.2-0ubuntu1-mot1
Upgrading these packages plus at least one additional package I've not yet fully identified breaks viewing mountable storage and the ability to unmount it.
xserver-xorg-core-2:1.6.0-0ubuntu14
Using the stock xserver-xorg-core 2:1.6.0-0ubuntu14 that's already installed without recovering /usr/bin/Xorg appears to lead to a loss of the status bar at the top. This particular issue is now handled by the script.
Cannot be upgraded:
gtk2-engines-1:2.18.1-0ubuntu1~mot1
This breaks aiw (Android In Window) so that there's no frame around the window and it can no longer be manipulated in any way.
xscreensaver-5.10-6-motorola1?
xscreensaver-data-5.10-6-motorola1?
xscreensaver-data-extra-5.10-6-motorola1?
This will likely break displaying aiw (Android In Window) as the unlocking mechanism for the screensaver. Still needs to be tested.
Working Ubuntu Apps:
LXTerminal
eog
Pidgin (SOUND! install gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio)
GIMP
gedit
Transmission
gnome-panel (switch between webtop and gnome-session mouse to top of screen)
VLC works (tested MKV video, music a little choppy)
rdesktop
nano
joe
synergy
vnc
axe
lxpanel
openssh-client
AbiWord
Rhythmbox (thread )
xfce4
NOT working:
Open Office
working on gnome-panel issue
but it does have more indepth settings. like display mouse keyboard etc
so you were able to get a higher display res than 1280x768?

yes, but this wasnt due to gnome-panel.
i'm currently running at 1280x1024, but only due to limitation of my monitor right now. i get the 1366x768 at the home monitor.
i'm guessing your on an hdtv, doesnt do 1080p yet, so it drops down?

How'd you get higher res?
I see what you'rr asking now. Maybe its because i'm using hdmi to DVI? I haven't done any mod on this. It does it automatically choosing highest resolution. Could be wrong tho.. I can see 720p only being available if your on an hdtv.

I was going to do this when I got my dock tomorrow.
I had two concepts of app lists to test.
The Jaunty list from ubuntu
http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Jaunty#Ubuntu_Addon_Applications
and the top 100 list
http://ubuntulinuxhelp.com/top-100-of-the-best-useful-opensource-applications/
The rdesktop also working
joe, synergy, vnc, axe all work
Am I able to write to the 'internal' storage. I know we have limited space, but can we write outside of the webtop environment?

no, you're right, you do have 1280 x 1024, and it's available to select as your res if you click the display settings (even on an HDTV). it just doesn't help any for HDTVs since it's a non-widescreen res.
Anyone have any luck with moonlight? I have tried but can't get it to work.

maybe in 2.4 when there is full multi core support, or if that 1.5ghz overclock kernel extension ever comes to fruition. but what you're thinking is exactly what I'm hoping for
if I can get Internet Explorer to work via virtual box or even somehow through IETab in FF via IE running in WINE my life would be complete as the majority of websites I use for work are IE only
I can tell you that the iputils and nmap packages work perfectly, so does John the Ripper along with openssh

I want to buy the Atrix, I'm on an ancient Android(i won't say which to save embarrassment lol). It really seems that it'll be a perfect fit for me especially if they have a virtual PC on it... mainly because of either browser support or having actual Microsoft Office on there
This will probably be one of the most powerful phones for a while so I might as well just get it. The 1GB SDRAM vs 512 of similar dual cores that have come out is a huge plus.
I was also thinking of installing virtual box but using windows 7 embedded as it is a much lighter footprint.
I am basically waiting for a CWM fiel that will run on 1.57 gingerblur.
Then I will start messing around with this.
Pretty sure any of the virtualization apps require an x86 chip.

I am afraid you are right about the x86 part....
I will try qemu then
http://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...nning-windows-under-the-qemu-emulator-320569/
If it doesn't work with win7 embedded then I will do it with xp embedded.
I want to be the first on youtube with windows running on a nvidia tegra 2 cpu based atrix.
Did you guys know that in games if you hold one finger down on the trackpad while in webtop mode, you can press the on screen buttons? I tried it in samurai 2 and dungeon defenders. Its hard to find the buttons but makes games much more playable.
Can someone tell me if this works with the laptop dock?

From my research qemu hasn't been ported to arm.
Also windows CE is the only arm windows availible. I don't think it will work on tegra.
I also don't see wine working on arm ubuntu for a long time. Because it will have to emulate x86 for windows stuff.
Windows 8 will support both arm and x86. However, why do that when you have a better os right now.

Hello i'm kind of new to this so please don't be to harsh .
To run Android TV, android 5.0 would need to be ported first thus me titling this "Is it Possible to Android 5.0 / Android TV on Raspberry Pi 2?" However my main subject / me making this post is to see if Android TV on Pi 2 is feasible.
I was thinking would be possible to run Android TV on the new Raspberry Pi? I ask this because the specs of the new Pi 2 are quite impressive and I can totally see this becoming popular as I can imagine a lot of people would go out and buy a Pi just to run android tv on it (me being one of them) . This would be great as not only would it provide a large install base for Android TV (which in turn up the developer support) it would make it so almost anyone can have a cheap chrome cast type of device with a functional GUI. I don't know if this is possible but doing some research I can't see any reason why it would't work and it would make for such a cool and inexpensive android tv box! :good:
Possible short comings would be:
Lag due to low clock speed
Lack of a remote (possible use of a bluetooth controller or a smart phone app to control the box using wifi)
Poor Gaming capabilities?
Probably a few more.

My research indicates this would be difficult, however, if a Chromecast type Media Center is what you're looking fo, I have good news. There are 2 OS downloads that are essentially XBMC ports for Pi 2.
http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/
I bought a Pi 2 today and am waiting for them to provide a delivery date. I intend to use it with one of these XBMC OS'S.

Probably the same conclusion as this:http://forum.xda-developers.com/hardware-hacking/raspberry-pi/rd-android-4-4-4-t2816952
XBMC for RPi already supports CEC through the HDMI... So most of your remote problems are solved there. A wireless Bluetooth keyboard/touchpad also solves the problem.
Yes, I can confirm that, I'm using osmc(aka raspbmc) for more that one and a half years and the performance is a quite good, even if I have allot of other things running on my pi...
CEC is supported, but be careful if you own a LG webos tv you should not us this, cause will slow down your tv and make it unresponsive, as far as I know only webos TVs are afected(2014 models).
But anyhow if raspbmc has a good performance on the old rpi B, I think should perform way faster on the new pi2.
I'm planning also to upgrade my pi..
From what is being reported on the Kodi forums, the Pi2 does very well with it. There is already a branch of OpenElec for it, and I think also one for RaspBMC/OSMC with a lot of the add-ons under recompilation during this week to give full support. But it's certainly getting full support from the dev community there, which is great.
But as noted even the Pi1 does very well anyway with Kodi, my overclocked B+ with OpenElec 5.0.1 works fine with it and no issues at all that I encounter day to day. Nice and smooth, and fully supports CEC from my (dumb) LG HDTV. And if you prefer, there's decent remote control for Android/iOS (Yatse) and web-based remote built into Kodi itself.
I'd certainly recommend it as an excellent alternative to AndroidTV.
The Android porting issue is the lack of graphics chip support
I'm wanting to see this as well, namely because Android TV also offers direct support for Netflix, Hulu, Plex, and others. While you can potentially get these with an xbmc based build, it will not work well with remotes.

The Pi supports CEC, so if you've got a suitable TV and the two are connected by HDMI then you're fine to go. I run my OpenElec set-up on my Pi1 using the remote of my LG dumb TV, and it's a doddle. It does have a wireless keyboard and mouse connected to it for it's other life as a Raspbian programming box for the kids (Scratch/Minecraft/Python) but I don't recall the last time I took up either when it was running in its OpenElec identity...
There is certainly an implementation of Plex for OpenElec. Not sure about the others, as I don't use any of them.

That isn't the problem. The remote itself works ok, and the device can see the events. The problem is the individual applications require different key bindings. I've done all of that crap where you configure different profiles and whatnot to bind different remote presses depending on the app, but it breaks all the time and maintaining it sucks balls.
Not doing that again. It's better just to have one cohesive interface that each app responds to identically. Android TV provides exactly that.
Two years ago, tried a hand at Android 2.3 on the Raspberry Pi after seeing an article on Cnet.
:silly:
Utterly terrible failure. They have then proceeded to pulled the article down.
YES, it's possible, GUI at 10-15fps with SW rendering. Slow but useable.

Actually, the problem is not that(the stack was adapted to GNU/Linux, see github.com/simonjhall/challenge but with memcpys), it is just that it depends on a Linux 3.0 kernel driver for full functionnality(HW layers). That driver is still not ported to modern kernels(the official RPi kernel is 3.19!)
It is fully doable. On IRC with the primary developer of Replicant, he said that porting Mesa/VC4 with adding Android support would take a few time with mostly buildsystem changes .(he ported llvmpipe)

I would like to use Android version 4.2.2 Jellybean! on my RP2+, Please understand i don't really quite understand everything you guys are saying, I just would like a straight answer, can it be done? My pi is version 2+ 512MB ram not the four core version.

No. Check back in 6 months, maybe someone will have Lollipop running on it by then!
Android TV on Raspberry Pi 2... That's a dream...
Well, I have a question...
Got the Raspberry Pi 2 with 512MB of ram, and I've tested the beta Android found here, and it's usable (just usable, it has lag, and many things can be done to it to became perfect). Why doesn't anyone try to port that Android on Raspberry Pi 2? Now we have a 900Mhz Quad Core CPU and double the ram...
Could you please provide mode details?
What' the issue with the Wi-Fi?
How is the general performance of the Lollipop?
Do you have Play Store installed?

As a linux power user, I don't find this to be particularly exciting or useful.
What would be, would be open source multi-window multi-display ANDROID.
We can already run xorg as an android application, so if you want that, you just run it in your add-on second display. Makes "Maru" pretty much meaningless.
Can you explain a little more what you mean by add on second display

I'm doing this now by Using a micro USB MHL mini hub with a USB, HDMI and a SD Card reader, I than have a 4 port USB hub to increase the number of USB ports connected to that. Connected to these hubs are a monitor, mouse, keyboard, HD, Intuos Wacom drawing board (yep it works) and a AIO HP Laser Printer in which even the scanner works. Than using the fantastic app, "Second Screen", I change my desktops DPI to 240, which makes it look more like a traditional desktop OS and extend the desktop, instead of just mirroring, allowing me to use the Nexus 6's display along side a Samsung 24" 1080P monitor.
Since I'm now using Android N, I also have access to multi-window support, in which I enabled floating windows, a hidden feature in Android N. Which means my desktop system, again looks and feels like a normal desktop OS with apps in a individual windows.
This is extremely easy to do. I can't wait for a Chrome OS build though, now that Android has been integrated so I can have a proper desktop experience. Android only view when being used as a mobile and than Chrome OS when docked.

Thanks a lot in advance!
Seriously impressive, great work.
Works perfectly on my Pixel 2/PI3.
Do you think it would be possible to get Android Auto Wireless functionality at a later point? Or does this require some specific wireless/bluetooth protocol that Google hasn't released just yet?

I wasn't sure how much of Android Auto is "open" to use. I haven't invested too much time looking into these forks like Auto and Wear but I know they're not quite as public as standard Android. At least that is the take I have gotten over the past few years.
Hopefully it's something that won't require some sort of specific hardware. Best of luck! I hope to test this out on my Pi 3 in a few weeks myself. I'll be sure to keep tabs on the project!
I promise I'm not one of those XDA ETA/update zombies.
Woohoo!! Thank you for this effort!
I'm curious which hardware, aside from the Pi, has been used successfully so far? Is that the Raspberry Pi Foundation touch display? Any HATs?
Thanks again!

Only Raspberry PI 3 has been tested so far in case of embedded platforms. Code itself is portable for any Linux-based or Windows platforms. If hardware acceleration of video decoding is supported by underlying backend used in Qt multimedia library (GStreamer for Linux and DirectShow for Windows) then OpenAuto will run smoothly without additional effort. If hardware acceleration is not supported by underlying backends then it must be implemented in OpenAuto (like in case of Raspberry PI 3).
I apologize, I meant in addition to the Pi, not alternative platforms. Things like which screen is it that you've used, any HATs on your Pi, etc. ?
Thank you!

Screen is the official one from PI Foundation (7''). Basically any screen should be suitable to run OpenAuto (as long as it is supported by the OS that hosts OpenAuto). The same for other hardware.
Dude! You're my hero, I've been playing around with so many ways to get this working, yours seems to be the perfect solution, I'll take it for a test drive tomorrow
Hi, I was wondering if anyone else wants a KVM-enabled kernel on the Galaxy S9. This would allow us to run accelerated ARM64 virtual machines with QEMU. We could even run Windows 10 ARM (I was able to get this working in Ubuntu on my Raspberry Pi 4 with KVM recently) and then use it on Samsung DeX with full hardware acceleration. Does anyone else want to work on developing a KVM-enabled kernel for the Galaxy S9 and other Samsung devices to run ARM64 desktop OSes? I feel as if this could bring DeX a step closer to replacing your PC if we could run Windows, Ubuntu, Arch, and other desktop OSes on it. What do you think?
