one last thing I forgot to mention is that I used the Ubuntu PPA listed on the x2go wiki
http://wiki.x2go.org/adding_the_x2go_repository_ubuntuWhen doing the apt-get install ... I can see the package manager initiate the download and then a message about accessing the ARMEL library so my Android ARM system's request is somehow recognized as needing ARM repository packages... I'm not smart enough in that area to know how that occurs <g>

I didn't mention it but if you read the Canonical engineer's blog... the goal of that cluster from Canonical's point of view was to have both Ubuntu and as much 3rd party software built and ready for the release of Ubuntu 11.10 in October.
My view is the combination of Unity (which seems to work really well so far on my 11.04 systems) will be a really good UI for tablets and finger oriented multi-touch screens. So Ubuntu 11.10 could become very interesting on Tablets.

If you were referring to:
"the custom 42 core ARM Cluster to in order to do have a a proper build environment and hardware that will allow contributors to submit and build the 20,000+"
My reading of the information available is that the cluster would be available and used by *both* canonical and 3rd party app developers as a build system to create the ARM packages of their software.

Hi Brian,

I probably have no influence on armel-builds on Launchpad, but I have an influence on the X2go package build process for Debian. I have already thought to build the main area in the packages.x2go.org repos for armel, as well. I use qemubuilder for build the packages, so I could basically build for any available architecture. It will take time (qemu software emulation), but it will work (and my build machine is quite smart).
I added the Ubuntu x2go repository
The 'sudo apt-get install x2goclient" did successfully run but so far it
Really? x2goclient should not be in the armel repositories. Where did you actually install from. Maybe the old location on obviously-nice.de???
only finds the following in the ARMEL repository for x2go:
*p python-x2go - python module for X2go client support* *p x2goserver - x2go server daemon scripts*
pyhoca-gui is arch-independent and should also be available. As there is an old version of nxproxy in Ubuntu you should actually be able to run pyhoca-gui on armel. Could you please try that (apt-get install pyhoca-gui).
[...]
I didn't really get the last part. Concrete question, maybe also to Reinhard: is there a possibility to build armel packages on Ubuntu launchpad?
Greets, Mike
