Ukuba ndikhumbula ngokuchanekileyo, yayingo-2013 awathi uMark Shuttleworth wasixelela ngokudibana kunye Ubuntu Touch. Kwavakala kukuhle: inkqubo efanayo yokusebenza kwiikhompyuter, ii-mobiles kunye neetafile, kodwa kwiminyaka emine kamva baqonda ukuba ayinakwenzeka, hayi namhlanje. Kungenxa yoko le nto iMicrosoft isilele kwaye iApple ayizamanga nokuzama, ishiya iiMacOS zekhompyuter kunye ne-iOS kunye neenguqulelo eziguqulweyo zenkqubo yokusebenza kweefowuni, iipilisi, iiwotshi kunye neeTV ezikrelekrele.
Xa u-Ubuntu Touch ebethatha amanyathelo okuqala, bekukho abasebenzisi abathanda iLinux abathenga ifowuni okanye ithebhulethi esebenzisa inkqubo yeCanonical yeselfowuni kwaye aba basebenzisi baba ziinkedama emva kwesigqibo sokuyeka iprojekthi. Kodwa into elungileyo malunga nelizwe leLinux kukuba kukho indawo enkulu ekuhlaleni kwaye kuhlala kunokwenzeka ukuba umntu othile ayikhathalele into elahlwa ngomnye umntu. Kwimeko ye-Ubuntu Touch, ngubani owathatha iprojekthi IBports, osebenza kwinkqubo yokusebenza ye-OTA-10.
Ubuntu Touch's OTA-10 iya kuphucula inkxaso ye-GPS
Kulabo bangaziyo, into eqhelekileyo kuthathelwa ingqalelo ukuba ulwazi oluncinci okwangoku lupapashiwe malunga nayo yonke into enxulumene ne "Ubuntu Ifowuni", iinguqulelo zenkqubo yokusebenza Ubuntu ephathekayo zibizwa njalo, "OTA", ukusuka Ngaphezulu Komoya, kunye nenani elisemva . Inguqulelo entsha sele iphuhlisiwe kunye nee-UBports li papashwe iindaba eziza kufika kunye nohlobo olutsha kunye nezabo izicwangciso zexesha elizayo, phakathi kwezinto esinazo:
- UMir unengxaki kwaye okwangoku baceba "ukubulala usetyenziso" olungasebenziyo. Unikezelo olutsha lweQt kunye nobunye 8 luyafuneka.
- Inkxaso ephuculweyo yeGPS, ekwathetha ukuba baya kususa amanqaku ukuphucula ukuthembeka.
- Ubuntu Touch iza kwi-PINE64 / iPine yefowuni.
- Bacinga ukuthembela kolunye uhlobo loBuntu, mhlawumbi Ubuntu 20.04.
Ezi ziindaba ezimnandi kubo bonke abanini beefowuni ze-Ubuntu. I-UBports iyaqhubeka nokuphucula inkqubo yokusebenza kwaye, ithathela ingqalelo loo nto khankanya Ubuntu 20.04, kubonakala ngathi bazakuqhubeka nokwenza njalo ixesha elide.
