i’ve tried sooo many times to get this version of linux running. i always end up stuck on a black screen

i got another version working (the sd.img one from the main thread) and it loads up fine, but once i log in, the switch becomes unresponsive. i can’t open chrome, or go to settings, etc.

i can’t figure out what i’m doing wrong lol any help would be greatly appreciated! i have tried both versions of l4t (sd.img and noobs.img) with an official upgrade (1.3.1) and an unofficial upgrade.

 

yes someone else on here told me the same so i bought a 128 san disk ultra from best buy, and i already had a 32 gb san disk and still no luck. i would try the 200gb one i have but i don’t have to delete my emunand

 

You're welcome! If I understand correctly are you trying to get an Ethernet connection in handheld mode? Unfortunately the capability of using the USB-C port for anything other than docking or charging, called"USB-OTG", isn't working right now as far as I'm aware. You might want to search or ask in bylaw's L4T Ubuntu thread just to make sure nobody else has gotten something working.

However, if you're trying to get Ethernet in docked mode, I can confirm that I have a USB 2.0 to LAN adapter that works fine and have heard from others that they have working adapters. Sorry I couldn't be more help, let me know if you do find a solution somewhere!

 

Unfortunately I don't have an NVIDIA graphics card so no I haven't tested it myself

 

Can this run steam link and fallout new Vegas?

 

Steam Link is available for Android, and runs on the new Android for Switch. The only Linux platform it's available on is Raspberry Pi, I doubt that binary could be made to run on Switch as the Pi uses different hardware.

 

Wine itself won't work with this.

 

i am literally having that exact problem and was thinking it must be the SD card, i think il have to buy a different micro SD, which one do you use that works like a charm???? THANKS

 

Do you know if a Samsung Evo plus would work??

 

The new SD card arrived today and is working much much better,

Still have a few major problems with Ubuntu though:

The on-screen keyboard dosnt show up when using Chrome

Can't get the joycons to work (I've paired them and they are connected) but they don't do anything.

Can't get it work in the Nintendo switch dock,

I've run the updates from software updater and also ran sudo apt update / sudo apt upgrade

*Edit*

Ignore this, It was a problem with my dock, I've resolved this, works great now, thanks
