Installation

  • First, you need to install Termux and Termux:Widgets on your Android device using F-Droid (Google play versions are not supported)

  • You will also need to install Termux-x11. Universal APK can be found there.

  • Then, you need to launch Termux app and run:

pkg install wget
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pi-dev500/termuxubuntu-x11/main/install.sh -O ubuinstall.sh && chmod +x ubuinstall.sh && ./ubuinstall.sh
  • Now, if you followed correctly the instructions, you should have a working ubuntu desktop that can be started by running ubuntu in termux.

Shortcut

  • If you want to have a direct shortcut to your ubuntu desktop, you should create a widget and select Termux:Widgets:
  • Then select Termux shortcut (for most of android lauchers, hold and place on homescreen)
  • It will open a window with a file browser. Click on tasks, then on Ubuntu.
  • A new icon will appear at the bottom of your screen. Hold down a click on it and move it to the desired position on your home screen.
  • This icon will permit to access directly to your linux desktop after a little wait.
