Few days ago I've seen Ubuntu for mobile.
What do You think will it be possible to run it on N9?
I already have my N9 more then one year and soon I'll have to change it for new phone and I don't want to loose Swipe...

am pretty sure:

A. a thread about this
B. most likely it will be possible since it's a linux distribution and were running linux, the kernel maybe an issue but if the project to update the N9 kernel to 3.4 is near completion we could be in luck.
C. it will most likely run like **** too.
D. In this thread I remember people posting a picture of the requirements and I think the N9s screen is too small for it.

So in February 21th we will have Ubuntu Phone OS images (for Nexus and Nexus 4) as well as source code :
http://www.canonical.com/content/tou...-february-2013
http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/02/ubuntu-phone-downloads-to-be-released-next-week


The code release is a milestone in the development program for Ubuntu's phone experience, and enables developers to port the platform to other devices. "Our platform supports a wide range of screen sizes and resolutions. Developers who have experience bringing up phone environments will find it relatively easy to port Ubuntu to current handsets"¯ said Pat McGowan, who leads the integration effort that produced the images being released. "We look forward to adding support for additional devices for everyday testing and experimentation."
Maybe it will be technically possible to have Ubuntu Phone OS on Nokia N9, despite the minimum suggested hardware is a Cortex A9 processor.

That will take some time, I hope people who already have dual boot MeeGo/Nitdroid won't have any issue doing tri-boot
