Motorola Xoom running Debian Linux with KDE 4 natively (no chroot)

Many thanks to LIV2 at cactuar.net for clarifying some issues offline and putting together the very first tutorial on running Linux natively on the Xoom.
This is a custom build based on his original tutorial.

@rstat1, I no longer have it but you can build it yourself using the instructions I posted at the link found in the description.

Great job!

Any luck with enabling right click in KDE4?

@jszigetvari I had no problems using the right click but I use a mouse.

Thanks, next one in line for me is CentOS but not before I get wireless to work. I managed to load the module which recognizes the wireless interface but is unable to do an AP scan. Unless i find a patch for the driver I will be configuring it manually using wpa_supplicant.conf.

You still have the image where I could download it?

Great work! Is it possible a Dual Boot?

Looks good dude! I might have to give KDE4 a try myself. been thinking about trying Gnome3 too.
