Ubuntu 9.10 Running on Nokia Booklet 3G – Video
I finally managed to load Ubuntu 9.10 on my Nokia Booklet 3G and honestly its awesome. You can check out the video below showing you some of the basic things like internet (Wi-fi or Mobile Broadband) all working on the fresh install. The only thing that bugs me is the screen resolution which is by default 800×600. If you know how to take it to 1280×720 please do let me know in the comments below.
You can subscribe to my 
Youtube channel for more things on Ubuntu & Nokia Booklet 3G. Also do follow me on twitter 
@s60blog for more updates.If you want me to review something else please do let me know. Enjoy the video below. (I know there is no sound as I accidentally recorded it in mute.)

It’s easy, just modify the kernel!
P.S. It’s not easy…
