UBUNTU - Nexus 7 (2013) General

Has anyone tried Ubuntu on new nexus 7?
like this
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Nexus7/Installation

That's for the first gen nexus 7 right? I've actually wanted to try it but don't want to be the first to mess with that until I got a confirmation that it works on 2nd gen tab. Because i would like to run Ubuntu on it to work on my programming on the go without having to carry my laptop.

We'll still just support the old Nexus 7 for now, as we first need to
start the port for the latest device. It should work, but the main
problem is that the device is based on Android 4.3 by default, so it
requires us to make our layer compatible with that as well (at least
the 4.3 based binaries).
Don't have the device, so can't give more details, but don't see why
not (we would at least have the same possibility to distribute
binaries, so we could also produce such a build once the port is
done).
Cheers,

The developer of MultiRom reached his goal on his Indiegogo campaign, so we should be getting it soon.

Nexus 4+Chainfire 3D OR ICS ?

Hi!
If I remember right, there was a problem with Chainfire 3D under Jelly Bean OS that resulted in soft bricking the phone. Has this issue been fixed yet? If not, is it possible to install ICS 4.0.4 somehow on Nexus 4 (Chainfire 3D works with ICS) ?

Not to be snarky, but you can. It's called a hackintosh.
To answer the OP's question, seeing as how the app hasn't been updated in a while, I wouldn't risk it. Also, the nexus 4 will never see ICS. It just won't work. It's like trying to forward-port iOS 3.1.3 to the iPhone 5. The OS was never meant to run on that hardware, and the drivers are not compatible.

Looks like we have to wait when chainfire3d will be updated to work with JB.

Doesn't work, because Firefox OS is ICS based, and the Nexus 4 was shipped with Android 4.2. Too bad!
The FFOS is ICS based, this is true, but there is an update making it 4.x compatible as well. Gonna take a look... Def want that on this Nexus 4
powered by my Nexus 4 on Avatar ROM! :beer: :beer:
Any progress on this? I am a little overwhelmed when looking at building as OS, trying to learn though. If I could I would build this for my N4 for sure.

It doesn't exist for the Nexus 4 because it can't run ICS.
But if you want to compile it for a device that runs ICS, check here.

They posted on their G+ page that it will be 10.2. Also, it's a pretty large under the hood update and there are lots of merge conflicts.

That is awesome. I use multiROM and it has an option to install Ubuntu touch. I guess I will wait to see if they update to provide an install for my device.

Where did you find the image? I can't find it.
That's great! I've been itching to try UT out ever since I got my new 2013 for Xmas.
Anybody have any feedback on how it's running, and how well it works with multiRom?
Cheers
Any update on release date for us mortals.
I bought a Nexus 7 2013 a couple weeks past just for Ubuntu Touch.
Does anyone have access to that image?
Which mailing list has the links?
