Uploading
hmm 4h:22m holly f* i hope i wont have to upload a new image soon

[demetris]

So image is uploaded.

https://goo.im/devs/demetris/X5_Mini/Ubuntu_Trusty_14.04_LTS_LXDE_X5_Mini.img.7z/

Un7zip it first then is preferable to format nand

sudo ./upgrade_tool [B]lf[/B]

Then

 sudo ./upgrade_tool [B]uf Ubuntu_Trusty_14.04_LTS_LXDE_X5_Mini.img[/B]

Make sure to check md5sum
c28b0e5f1f950af0504ddf668c072d4e Ubuntu_Trusty_14.04_LTS_LXDE_X5_Mini.img

Boot will take 10-15min

Awesome news 😊

Hey neomode do you mind helping me out to setup your working enviroment? I can work from there in kernel developing and android updates.

[neomode]

Hello,

The Best way for a Build Environment is the Following Setup:

1.: Ubuntu 12.04 or Linux Mint (I prefer Linux Mint because i don´t like the Ubuntu Desktop)
2.: Install all Updates after the Install
3.: Then do the follow as Root

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java6-installer

sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl1.2-dev \
libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.8-dev squashfs-tools build-essential zip curl \
libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev pngcrush schedtool libxml2 libxml2-utils \
xsltproc lzop libc6-dev schedtool g++-multilib lib32z1-dev lib32ncurses5-dev \
lib32readline-gplv2-dev gcc-multilib libswitch-perl

sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf \
lzop libncurses5-dev \
libssl1.0.0 libssl-dev



Now your ready to go. If you have any more Questions feel free to ask.

Regards
Neomode

Thanks for the time for this but am setup with 14.04 already as am an RD at xda and part of cyanogenmod team (p880-optimus-x4hd maintainer)
I was more interested at kernel source, device tree, and propriertary blobs.
I havent worked with rockchip soc before so i dont know where to start with this.

[neomode]

Oh ok sorry, don´t know that.
Here is the Source I am using.
