If you want to root your Motorola Droid Razr xt910, but can’t find proper Linux docs, here is a small howto. Do it on your own responsibility, you may brick your device!
This method should work on any Linux distribution, be it Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora and so on. My Razr was running Android 4.0.4 when I was rooting it.

Next one – connecting your phone via USB to your laptop or PC and enabling USB debugging mode in your phone: menu -> System settings -> Developer options -> USB debugging.
You will also need su, busybox and superuser app. For convenience, you can download them all from here (1.5 MB tar.bz archive):
