I am testing calls and ofono at the moment.
I have uboot for booting, sorry, but I'm not using multiboot.
Do you know a way to boot into Nitdroid with the uboot? Than you can use part of these scripts to try Kubuntu. Otherwise you can use another part of these scripts to automate creation of the image bootable by multiboot.
thanks

However, the Init freqently gets Segfaults and the Kernel panics. Don't know which of these is the reason. /var/crash is empty. Where is the kernel panic bug report procedure? I can't find it. Anyone knows?
And Kubuntu 11.10 can't launch any of the sessions with current updates.
Also had to comment _ti module in the SGX startup script to make it work.
And I finally can get into tty by changing any tty to tty8 and using Ctrl+Alt/Fn+Volume. But the keyboard is standard so I can't get any specific symbol. Already sent installation errors to apachelogger.
Will add new scripts in a couple of hours.

Tonight in our show:
1) SGX drivers installation with dirty workaround for missing bufferclass_ti module:
2) quick and dirty tty8 to access it with Ctrl+Fn+Volume:
Wow, keyboard works again! Fn is Fn again = no tty8 
UPDATE: Use https://code.launchpad.net/~xintx-ua...n900-installer

sed -i 's/\(modprobe bufferclass_ti\)/#\1/g' /etc/init/opengles-sgx-omap3.conf
sed -i 's/tty6/tty8/g' /etc/init/tty6.conf
UPDATE: Use https://code.launchpad.net/~xintx-ua...n900-installer

can't you use the sgx drivers from the meego builds or are they not released?
Or do you want to copy files directly?
Or rebuild them from source? Are there any?

https://wiki.kubuntu.org/ARM/n900/ :
Note that Qt and probably also KDELibs and Plasma Mobile need rebuilding for GLES support.

from what Stskeeps said in that thread it seems parts of the drivers, the modules are open source. but the libraries are closed.

Ooh... Nice. 
I just got faced with KDM, and HOLY CR*P! xD
IT WAS AWESOME TO LOOK AT THE SMOOTHNESS.
I started it with the MeeGo kernel and those files on the boot partition, but Kubuntu on the other.
I did this straight from the Kubuntu wiki, by the way.
I wonder: Would I be able to install... Gnome in this?
Would be nice to see Nautilus and stuff running on my N900.
I'm already planning to install the SGX drivers if they are needed. Are they?
The Oxygen theme seemed to run flawlessly.
I wonder about something, though:
Why does the system show the Welcome-screen when I boot back to Maemo?
Does it write to some hidden corner of the NAND or something?
And is there any way as of yet to use WLAN?

Thare is a line for copying /lib/firmware from Meego image. It should make WiFi work. If it does not, please report.
1) What exact kernel version did you use to boot?
2) It is actually working and working great. The most awesome part is the Onboard themes
See my latest script for the Ubuntu install.3) They don't actually worked for me. The system boots but without OpenGL support. If you'll find out how to make them really work, please say us.
4) Did you notice that *buntu does not recognize the N900 system clock at all? At least it didn't a week ago.

I just tried commands from https://wiki.kubuntu.org/ARM/n900
And it says that it has connected. However, no voice yet. Will try Empathy instructions from https://wiki.linaro.org/Ofono/HowTo
