# Install Ubuntu20 on Termux Android
This installs Ubuntu 20 with xfce4 desktop on Termux. All scripts are from Andronix, I just compose and edit them to make the installer easier and smoother. It includes:
- [x] Ubuntu 20
- [x] XFCE4 Desktop
- [x] TigerVNC Server
- [x] Non-root Account Creation
- [x] Audio Support
- [x] Chromium Browser
## Installation
Copy and paste this command to Termux:
### Ubuntu 20 With XFCE4
```bash
pkg install wget curl proot tar -y && wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tuanpham-dev/termux-ubuntu/master/ubuntu.sh && chmod +x ubuntu.sh && bash ubuntu.sh
```
### Ubuntu 20 CLI Only
```bash
pkg install wget curl proot tar -y && wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tuanpham-dev/termux-ubuntu/master/ubuntu.sh && chmod +x ubuntu.sh && bash ubuntu.sh nde
```
### Ubuntu 20 With LXDE
```bash
pkg install wget curl proot tar -y && wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tuanpham-dev/termux-ubuntu/master/ubuntu.sh && chmod +x ubuntu.sh && bash ubuntu.sh lxde
```
## Run
### Start Ubuntu
After installation, on Termux, you can execute this command to run ubuntu:
```bash
./start-ubuntu20.sh
```
### Exit Ubuntu
To exit ubuntu you can simply run `exit` command. This will stop vncserver and some services.
```
exit
```
### Start VNC Server
On Ubuntu, run this command to start VNC Server:
```bash
vncserver-start
```
Then you can use VNC Client to connect to `127.0.0.1:1` or `127.0.0.1:5901`
### Stop VNC Server
On Ubuntu, run this command to stop VNC Server:
```bash
vncserver-stop
```
## VNC Client For Android
VNC Viewer (from RealVNC) is the best when you use your phone. Unfortunately, it does not does not support Samsung DEX.
[AVNC](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.gaurav.avnc/index.html) is another good VNC client. In my opinion it is the best when you use your tablet or Samsung Dex.
## Issues
### Group Issue
If you get an issue message like this:
```
groups: cannot find name for group ID 20305
groups: cannot find name for group ID 50305
```
You can simply add group with this command:
```
sudo groupadd --gid 20305 permagrp5
sudo groupadd --gid 50305 permagrp6
```
