After several tries I still havent managed to make it

Mohammad, is there any new progress since the last edit of your post #51? And what about newer ubuntus 10.04 and 10.10?

Not to be rude. I just want ubuntu on my N900 so badly

Installed Ubuntu 10.10 with the Win32DiskManager. It goes to login screen, but keyboard and mouse donīt work.

Has some "suspend" issues too, it just keeps suspending all the time.

The N900 uses omap3. You need to download the other ubuntu netbook image. Good luck!

Yeah, basic.

Anyway, keyboard and mouse will not work.

Agree. Seems to be a very good port, and blazing fast.
