installing linux on tablet
by rblampain from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5766E)
A family member in a nursing home is confined to a bed and was playing simple games coming with a Debian distro on a laptop which is now too big for her needs as she is unable to move from bed to table on her own. She is asking me to put those games on a tablet which she can move more easily and play with a touch-screen. I know nothing about tablets.
It seems that it is possible to do so through an application called Debian Noroot.
Has anyone any advice or experience on the subject?
I was thinking of buying something like a Lenovo TAB M10 HD selling for $AU199.00 which, apparently, she should be able to connect to the internet through the plan of her cell/mobile phone if she wants to surf the net but most if not all apps available on the gadget, as well as any other software from the distro, are probably useless to her. This device seems to have a Qualcomm Snapdragon SDM429 Processor.
Any hint welcome.
Thank you for your help.
