I will change title for you. :D

EdIT : Cannot.

and if....it will work similar to the ios/andriod devices... so there must be a new way to control cause you dont have keyboard and mouse

It is possible to replace Android on a Nexus 7 tablet with Ubuntu (since the bootloader can be unlocked).

@calinou

i thought the next ubuntu version would support arm devices ... so i am not sure if a rooted device (arm) like the most tablets are will run fully with the 12.10 ubuntu version.

thats why i still wait to root my archos 101 XS ...

Nuff sed, imma get one as soon as they come out.

Maybe we can use the developing Pocket Edition of Minetest?

The question should be this:

Support for Minetest on Ubuntu?

Ubuntu tablets work exactly the same as Ubuntu computers, there are just a few graphical changes and underlying core changes.

Minetest will still work, but you will not be able to control it well unless you plug in a keyboard...

Virtual keypads suck.

Anyways, Minetest should work if its dependencies do, so no worries there. Get a decent bluetooth keyboard, and you'll have a gimped laptop. I mean, a gaming tablet.
