External Display Required for UBUNTU?

[acarya]

For Ubuntu for Android to work or be "activated," their website and all the descriptions I have read involve using the HDMI or other external video interface, or a dock.

With "phones," or pocket pc's or multi-function devices as we should rename them... the screen resolution is getting to HD quality with more and more phones...

If I carry a BT keyboard & mouse... I would hope I could just manually "activate" the Ubuntu interface. Does anyone else see this as an important feature to include?

Have fun with using a DESKTOP interface on a mobile phone screen....

To be honest I would be just giddy if I could pair my Ubuntu ready Android handset with my Asus Transformer and dock and use it......but then that's just dreaming lol.

I wish there was a "Downvote for ignorance" option... You've apparently forgotten about tablets, some of which have larger screens than ultrabooks and netbooks.

Ubuntu for Android would be amazing on something like the Transformer

I have no issue fixing my parent's computer using logmein on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus.

Tablets could definitely work, from a visual standpoint. On an HD phone display? Don't even wanna think about it.
