Did you watch the video I had linked to in my previous post?

You could copy that approach and use a Debian Changeroot on your tablet
(no, you do not neet to "root" the tablet for that) - X2GoClient for
Debian on armhf is available, and as long as you have proper peripherals
and a large enough screen, you could use it like that.

Okay, Sound support is probably out of the question (at least I never
tried to run pulseaudio in the changeroot), File Sharing *might* work,
and Printing will be impossible, I dare to claim, but for regular
desktop work, it should work.
