Installation

(This assumes you have Cyanogenmod and a custom recovery, e.g. CWM recovery, already working on your device!)

1. Download the ubuntu preinstalled and the p4wifi specific cyanogenmod image from here.

2. Put both zip files onto your sdcard

3. Enter recovery mode and do a wipe data/factory reset

4. Flash in this order:

  • First the cyanogenmod image (e.g. cm-10.1-20130325-UNOFFICIAL-p4wifi.zip)
  • Then the ubuntu image (this may take a while)

5. reboot

To fix the screen pixel ratio (this will become obsolete once the config file is included by default):

1. download p4wifi.conf: http://ubuntuone.com/688wubidavYnvfKvBWV7cY

2. put it on the sdcard

3. connect tab to computer, if "adb devices" sees your tab run "adb root" and then "adb shell" and "ubuntu_chroot shell". Now you are inside the ubuntu chroot shell.

4. now copy p4wifi.conf into "/etc/ubuntu-session.d/". To do this run: "cp data/media/0/p4wifi.conf /etc/ubuntu-session.d/" (obviously, but the right path where you've put the p4wifi.conf)

5. reboot and the screen resolution should be looking much better Wink ;)

Enable WiFi

Create a script which will be run on boot and load the wifi module:

touch /data/local/userinit.sh

insert the following in userinit.sh:

#!/bin/bash
insmod /system/lib/modules/dhd.ko firmware_path=/system/etc/wifi/bcmdhd_sta.bin nvram_path=/system/etc/wifi/nvram_net.txt

make the script executable:

chmod +x /data/local/userinit.sh
