In kasta oo laga yaabo inay wali leedahay qayb yar oo ka mid ah suuqa desktop-ka, Linux ayaa caan ku ah maalin kasta. Suuqa desktop-ka laftiisa ayaa laga yaabaa inuusan ahaanin dufanka quduuska ah ee uu mar ahaan jiray. Taa beddelkeeda, suuqa nidaamka hawlgalka mobilada ayaa ah halka laga heli karo tartanka dhabta ah.

Maanta suuqa waxa gacanta ku haya IOS-ka Apple iyo Google-ka Android . Kuwo kale ayaa isku dayay in ay dabciyaan xajinta labadan kooxood, laakiin waxba ma tarin. Linux ma^{(Could Linux)} noqon kartaa beddel macquul ah? Waxaa laga yaabaa inaad la yaabto in helitaanka kiniinka Linux ku shaqeeya uusan u dhowayn wax aan caadi ahayn sida ay u egtahay.

Waa maxay sababta Linux on Tablet?

Waxaa jira sababo badan oo loo isticmaalo Linux nidaamyada kale ee hawlgalka. Marka ay timaado aaladaha mobilada, faa'iidada koowaad waa dabeecadda Isha Furan^{(Open Source)} .

Hadda, sida qaar ka mid ah akhristayaasha shaki la'aan ay tilmaamayaan hadda Android sidoo kale waa Isha^(Source) furan . Si kastaba ha ahaatee, marka aad iibsato telefoonka caadiga ah Android , waxa uu leeyahay nooca OS ah oo aad loo bedelay. Waxa kale oo shaki la'aan lagu buuxin doonaa software gaar ah, bloatware iyo apps kala duwan oo wax u dhimaya sirtaada.

Taleefanka ama tablet-ka ku shaqeeya Linux , dhanka kale, waxa uu socon doona oo kaliya Open Source code. Taas oo macnaheedu yahay in qof kastaa uu baari karo koodka walxaha xaasidnimada leh ama dhibaatada leh.

IOS iyo Android labaduba waxay la xiriiraan Linux . Android waxa ay ku salaysan tahay nooc wax laga beddelay oo ah kernel Linux . IOS kama soo dagin Linux^(Linux) , laakiin waxay dib u soo celin kartaa awoowgeeda Unix sidii awoowe wadaag ah, oo la mid ah Linux .

Ubuntu Touch ayaa hogaamineysa xirmada

Haddii aad haysato kiniin ku shuban kara Linux , noocee Linux^(Linux) ah ayaad dooran kartaa? Ugu dambeyntii adiga ayay kugu xiran tahay, laakiin hogaamiyaha cad waa nooc gaar ah oo loo yaqaan Ubuntu Touch . Noocan Ubuntu Linux waxaa si gaar ah loogu talagalay inuu ka shaqeeyo shaashadaha casriga ah iyo tablet-ka. 

Tani waa hawl aad u adag, maadaama ku dhawaad ​​dhammaan qolofyada Linux^(Linux) ee horay u yimid loo qorsheeyay kumbuyuutarka iyo mouse interface. Ubuntu Touch sidoo kale waxay leedahay tirada ugu badan ee aaladaha la taageero iyo bulshada taageerada firfircoon. 

Ubuntu Touch ma aha oo kaliya muraayadda desktop-ka. Si weyn ayaa wax looga beddelay, loo dejiyay inay ku shaqeyso soo- saareyaasha ARM^(ARM) waxayna hoos u dhigtay qaybo aan khusayn isticmaalka aaladda mobaylka. Waxa kale oo ay leedahay qaab desktop ah, oo la mid ah Samsung Dex iyo qaabka desktop-ka Android ee soo socda . In kasta oo ay jiraan xulashooyin kala duwan oo loogu talagalay qaybinta Linux -ku-saleysan , Ubuntu Touch waa meesha ugu fiican ee laga bilaabo.

Wali Waa Maalmo Hore

Linux on tablet-ka ama casriga ah aad ayuu uga fog yahay inuu u bislaaday sida Android ama iOS, markaa ha filanin inaad si siman u raacdo. Haddii aad iibsato mid ka mid ah kiniiniyada dhifka ah ee la rarto Linux^(Linux) , waxaad dabcan yeelan doontaa khibradda ugu fiican. 

Soo saaraha ayaa hubin doona in software-ku si sax ah ula shaqeeyo qalabka kiniinka. Haddii aad Linux ku rakibto kiniini xaq u leh laftaadu, ma jirto dammaanad qaadka in dhammaan qalabkaagu uu si sax ah u shaqayn doono ama u shaqayn doono. 

Ku habboonaanta qalabku^(Hardware) wuxuu ugu dambeyntii ku jiraa gacmaha bulshada Linux waxaana jira noocyo badan oo kiniinno ah oo kala duwan oo leh qalab kala duwan, suurtagal maaha in la wada daboolo. Meesha ugu fiican ee laga bilaabo waa Ubuntu Touch liiska qalabka ku habboon^{(Ubuntu Touch compatible devices list)} .

Waxaa laga^(May) yaabaa inaad ku xaddidan tahay Hardware duug ah^(Hardware)

Ka dib qodobkii hore, waxaad ogaan kartaa in aaladaha Linux si fiican u shaqeeyaan ay u muuqdaan kuwo da' weyn. Taasi waa inta badan sababtoo ah waxaa jiray wakhti badan oo lagu soo dejin lahaa oo la fahmi lahaa qalabkii hore. Markaa ha filanin wax qabad sare, oo kaniiniyada goyn doona inay Linux si fiican ugu shaqeeyaan wax yar uun ka dib marka la sii daayo.

Hadda, iyada oo dhammaan baaqyadii ka baxay jidka, aan eegno qaar ka mid ah tusaalooyinka dhabta ah ee kiniiniyada ee socodsiin kara Linux .

PineTab

PineTab kuma^(PineTab) guulaysan doono wax abaal-marin ah waxqabad ama tilmaamo. Waxaa loogu talagalay sidii doorasho kiniin ah oo aad u jaban oo loogu talagalay wadamada soo koraya iyo suuqa waxbarashada. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, iyada oo xoogaa la eegayo waa qalab aad u cajiib ah.

Laga bilaabo $99 kaliya, waxay leedahay processor-ka Quad-core oo leh 2GB oo RAM ah^(RAM) . Shaashadda waxay bixisaa xallinta 720p, waxay leedahay kamarado hore iyo gadaal iyo dekedo USB ah oo loogu talagalay isku xirka meelaha durugsan sida kiiboodhka. Kani waa kiniin Linux^(Linux) ah oo si buuxda u shaqaynaya oo leh ikhtiyaaro fidineed si loogu daro casriyeynta sida modemyada LTE , SATA SSDs iyo M.2 drives .

Waxa kale oo ay leedahay astaamo cusub, sida booska kaarka SD oo aad ka bootin karto. Samaynta fududaynta in si deg deg ah loo shubo hababka kala duwan ee hawlgalka iyo loadouts software gaar ah.

Waxaa laga yaabaa in PineTab aanu u noqon kaniiniga saxda ah ee dadka badankiisa, laakiin waa kaniini ku filan isticmaalka guud. Awoodeeda ugu weyn waa wax-ka-beddelid iyo wadarta xorriyadda software, taasoo ka dhigaysa kombiyuutar yar oo cabsi leh.

RasPad 3^{(The RasPad 3)}

Waxaan nahay taageereyaal weyn oo Raspberry Pi ah, oo la awoodi karo laakiin awood yar oo kombuyuutar ah. Raspberry Pi -gii ugu horreeyay waxaa loo sameeyay si uu u bixiyo kombuyuutar la awoodi karo oo ay carruurtu ku baran karaan si ay u codeeyaan, laakiin tan iyo markaas waxa laga helay guri dhammaan noocyada hiwaayadaha iyo mashaariicda il furan.

Qalabka RasPad 3 wuxuu u beddelaa Raspberry Pi 4 kaniini ku shaqeeya Linux. Waxay la socotaa RasPad OS^{(RasPad OS)} , kaas oo ku salaysan Raspberry Pi OS , laakiin RasPad wuxuu si buuxda ula jaan qaadayaa nidaamyada hawlgalka sida Ubuntu iyo Raspbian .

Naqshadaynta jireed ee RasPad waa mid aad u xiiso badan. Halkii uu ka noqon lahaa kiniin fidsan, waxa uu leeyahay jidh qaabaysan. Tani waxay ka dhigan tahay marka aad hoos u dhigto shaashadda waxay si qumman u xaglinaysaa daawashada oo waxaa jira meel bannaan oo mid kasta oo ka mid ah dekedaha Raspberry Pi in lagu celceliyo.

RasPad 3^{(RasPad 3)} waa kaniiniga ugu fiican ee loo isticmaalo aqoon-is-weydaarsiyada, waxbarashada, shaybaadhka iyo meelaha kale ee aad rabto in gacmahaagu xor u yihiin inay ku shaqeeyaan adigoo si fudud u gelaya tablet-kaaga. Kaliya $239 (ama ka yar inta lagu jiro iibka) waa gorgortan buuxa.

x86 Tablets Microsoft dusha sare^{(x86 Microsoft Surface Tablets)}

Kaniiniyada dusha sare^(Surface) ee Microsoft waxay u kala baxaan laba nooc oo waaweyn: ARM iyo x86 . Kiniinadooda ARM^(ARM) waxay ku shaqeeyaan nooc gaar ah oo Windows ah oo loo qoray inay ku shaqeeyaan soo-saareyaashaas, laakiin nasiib darro uma eka inay Ubuntu Touch (oo sidoo kale loogu talagalay ARM ) ay ku habboon tahay.

Si kastaba ha noqotee, marka ay timaado kiniinadooda X86 , arrimuhu way ka duwan yihiin. Maadaama x86 kaniiniyada dusha sare^(Surface) ay yihiin kombiyuutarada caadiga ah ee ku shaqeeya heerka caadiga ah ee Windows , ma jiraan wax kaa joojinaya inaad ku shubto nooc kasta oo Linux ah oo x86 ah qalabka. 

Haddii aad sameyso cilmi baaris yar oo Google ah waxaad u badan tahay inaad ka heli doonto hagaha rakibaadda Linux ee distro-ka aad doorbideyso ee x86 ^(Linux)Tablet Tablet^{(Surface Tablet)} . Kiniinnada dusha sare^(Surface) waxay bixiyaan waxqabad aad u fiican iyo tayada qalabka, laakiin waxay u badan tahay inaad sameyso tinkering badan si aad u hesho astaamo ay ka mid yihiin multitouch si aad si sax ah ugu shaqeyso.

Emperor Linux Raven^{(The Emperor Linux Raven)}

Inta badan waa inaad ku rakibtaa Linux kiniin laftaadu, oo leh heerar kala duwan oo guulo ah. Markaa waxaad haysataa iibiyeyaasha khaaska ah sida EmperorLinux , kuwaas oo horay u habeeyey kombuyuutarrada tablet-ka ee leh nooca Linux ee caadiga ah . Dammaanad qaadida in dhammaan qalabku shaqeeyo oo uu bixiyo taageero farsamo.

Kaniiniyada Raven-ka waxa wax laga beddelay kombayuutarrada Lenovo Thinkpad X kuwaas oo lagu heli karo noocyo iyo tilmaamo kala duwan. Ma ahan kuwo raqiis ah waa run, laakiin haddii aad raadineyso hirgelinta kiniin Linux ah oo heer-xirfadeed ah, tani waa meesha aan hadda joogno.

Ma taqaanaa mashruucyo tablet-ka ah oo Linux ah oo cajiib ah ama qalab? Noogu sheeg faallooyinka.

4 Best Linux Tablets and Why You Should Use One

While it may still have a relatively ѕmall share of the desktop market, Linux is growing in popularity every day. The desktop market itself may not be the holy grail it once was. Instead, the mobile operating system market is where the real competition can be found.

Today the market is dominated by Apple’s iOS and Google’s Android. Others have tried to loosen the grip of this duopoly, but to no avail. Could Linux be a viable alternative? You might be surprised that getting a Linux-powered tablet isn’t nearly as unusual as it sounds.

Why Linux on a Tablet?

There are many reasons to use Linux over other operating systems. When it comes to mobile devices, the primary advantage is its Open Source nature.

Now, as some readers are no doubt pointing out right now Android is also Open Source. However, when you buy the typical Android phone, it has a highly-modified version of the OS on it. It will also undoubtedly be packed with proprietary software, bloatware and various apps that compromise your privacy.

A phone or tablet running Linux, on the other hand, will only be running Open Source code. Which means that anyone can scrutinise the code for malicious or problematic elements.

Both iOS and Android are actually related to Linux. Android is based on a modified version of the Linux kernel. iOS doesn’t descend from Linux, but can trace its ancestry back to Unix as a common ancestor, the same as Linux.

Ubuntu Touch Leads the Pack

If you have a tablet that can load Linux, which version of Linux should you choose? It’s ultimately up to you, but the clear leader is a special version known as Ubuntu Touch. This version of Ubuntu Linux has been specifically designed to work on smartphone and tablet screens. 

This is a daunting task, since virtually all Linux shells that have come before were designed for a keyboard and mouse interface. Ubuntu Touch also has the largest number of supported devices and an active support community. 

Ubuntu Touch isn’t just a reskin of the desktop OS. It’s significantly modified, ported to run on ARM processors and has dropped components that aren’t relevant to mobile device use. It also has a desktop mode, similar to Samsung Dex and the upcoming Android desktop mode. While there are various options for tablet-based Linux distributions, Ubuntu Touch is the best place to start.

It’s Still Early Days

Linux on a tablet or smartphone is far from being as mature as either Android or iOS, so don’t expect to have a totally smooth ride. If you buy one of the rare tablets that ships with Linux, you’ll of course have the best experience. 

The manufacturer will ensure that the software works properly with the hardware of the tablet. If you install Linux on an eligible tablet yourself, there’s no guarantee that all of your hardware will work or work correctly. 

Hardware compatibility is ultimately in the hands of the Linux community and there are so many different tablet models with different hardware, it’s impossible to cover them all. A good place to start is the Ubuntu Touch compatible devices list.

You May Be Limited to Older Hardware

Following on from the previous point, you may find that the devices Linux works best on tend to be older. That’s mainly because there’s been more time to unpack and understand the older hardware. So don’t expect high-performance, cutting edge tablets to run Linux perfectly just after release.

Now, with all the caveats out of the way, let’s look at some actual examples of tablets that can run Linux.

PineTab

The PineTab isn’t going to win any prizes for performance or specifications. It’s intended as an ultra low-cost tablet option meant for developing nations and the education market. However, with a bit of perspective it’s a very impressive device.

Starting at a mere $99, it has a quad-core processor with 2GB of RAM. The screen offers a 720p resolution, it has front- and rear- facing cameras and USB ports for connecting peripherals like keyboards. This is a fully-functional Linux tablet with expansion options to add upgrades such as LTE modems, SATA SSDs and M.2 drives.

It also has innovative features, such as an SD card slot you can boot from. Making it easy to quickly load different operating systems and specialized software loadouts.

The PineTab might not be the right tablet for most people, but it’s an adequate tablet for general use. Its greatest strength is customizability and total software freedom, making it a formidable little computer.

The RasPad 3

We’re big fans of the Raspberry Pi, an affordable yet powerful little computer board. The first Raspberry Pi was created to offer an affordable computer that kids could learn to code on, but since then it’s found a home in all sorts of hobbies and open source projects.

The RasPad 3 kit converts the Raspberry Pi 4 into a Linux-powered tablet. It comes with RasPad OS, which is based on the Raspberry Pi OS, but the RasPad is fully compatible with operating systems such as Ubuntu and Raspbian.

The physical design of the RasPad is quite interesting. Instead of being a flat tablet, it has a wedge-shaped body. This means when you put it down the screen is angled perfectly for viewing and there’s plenty of space for every one of the Raspberry Pi’s ports to be replicated.

The RasPad 3 is thus a perfect tablet for use in workshops, education, labs and other places where you want your hands free to work while having easy access to your tablet. At only $239 (or less during sales) it’s an absolute bargain.

x86 Microsoft Surface Tablets

Microsoft’s Surface tablets come in two main varieties: ARM and x86. Their ARM tablets run a special version of Windows written to run on those processors, but sadly it doesn’t seem as if Ubuntu Touch (which is also designed for ARM) is compatible.

When it comes to their X86 tablets however, things are different. Since x86 Surface tablets are essentially regular computers that run the standard Windows kernel, there’s nothing stopping you from loading any x86 version of Linux on the device. 

If you do a little Google research you’ll probably find a Linux installation guide for your preferred distro on an x86 Surface Tablet. Surface tablets offer great performance and hardware quality, but you’ll probably have to do plenty of tinkering to get features such as multitouch to work properly.

The Emperor Linux Raven

Most of the time you’ll have to install Linux on a tablet yourself, with varying degrees of success. Then you have specialist vendors such as EmperorLinux, who pre-configure tablet computers with a custom version of Linux. Guaranteeing that all hardware works and offers technical support.

Their Raven tablets are modified Lenovo Thinkpad X computers that are available in a variety of models and specifications. They are not cheap it’s true, but if you’re looking for a professional-grade Linux tablet implementation, this is where we’re at right now.
