L4T Ubuntu
​

Intro
L4T Ubuntu is a version of Linux based on nvidia's linux for tegra project. It uses a different kernel compared to previous releases which allows it to use features not yet in mainline. Such as audio, docking support and vulkan.

Thnx

Its possible to use joycons attached on the console but connected by bluetooth or its necessary to have it unattached?

Yup

What effects does it have on the switch using 2ghz long term? Is it better on handheld mode or docked? I'm very skeptical trying this out, though I want to play wind water portable mode lol please someone answer this for me

Using 2ghz in handheld mode will degrade your battery faster in the long term. Overclocking is of course optional but without it you would be seeing a performance decrease, can't attest to how much that affects game play.

But what about using it docked? Would it still be bad for the battery?

Can you try F-Zero GX...por favor? , ah! And Punch-Out (wii).

Personally, I would mod the dock and install a fan to try and prevent the switch from warping.

Replacing the thermal paste will do wonders for temperature.

 

[Esppiral]

You resize it on the switch itself, I think it's in the original post, search in Ubuntu for data

Did someone manage to get the usb OTG working without the dock?
On the 5V rail there are 0.34V, that made me think that it was not outputting power, i tried a powered usb hub, but still no detection by the system.

I dont believe it's been enabled currently. Since in sxos you can use otg for externals. Aswell as being able to use those dongles that let you use other controllers

 

[BruhBoy]

Could you share your settings?
Mainly for twilight princess and melee?
And try Wii sports? Hahaha

Shared my settings in the guides thread

@bylaws Hello, this is working flawlessly so far, but it seems the kernel is missing the midi sequencer (snd_seq_hw_open returns no file or directory)
Could you include it in the next update?
Thanks.

Anyone know how to make this: sudo modprobe binfmt_misc work?

 

[onofrix]

Can you try F-Zero GX...por favor? , ah! And Punch-Out (wii).

Fzero gx runs very very very bad. I dont know about punch out performance! Is a very good game. I will test it later!

This kernel doesn't have loadable modules enabled. I believe I saw that the developer added binfmt support built into the kernel instead of as a module.

I just got a switch with trinket m0 in it off of ebay. It was bricked as in OFW would not ever boot up due to the seller's choi downgrade from 7.0.1 to 5.1
I did testing and stuff. I took my sd card from my other switch and guess what... It did booted up ubuntu nicely.....
actually, It is great tool to rule out any hardware issues.

I reflashed the mod chip then setup autoboot to just boot ubuntu

Hey, heads up... I have an official nintendo 128gb MicroSD and if you try flashing the image it apparently doesn't seem to work. I had to use my old 3DS' 16gb and it worked just fine. If anyone knows why the 128gb doesn't work, please tell me. (The SD is real, not fake)

Sorry but this is the wrong thread to ask...
