Okay, Plan Änderung für die September #linux #challenge .
Ich werde #droidian nutzen, da ich dort ein besseres ökosystem vorfand. #linuxonmobile ist scheinbar noch zu neu denn die Informationsgewinnung ist relativ umständlich.
Ich suche aktuell noch einen Client für #Mastodon und einen für #signal. Zusätzlich fehlt mir noch ein #podcast #client , aber dafür habe ich einen Firefox mit adblocker.
Funktioniert aber erstaunlich gut.

📢 #LinuxOnMobile update: Meet #Droidian, a Debian-based Linux distro for Android devices. It's addressing the challenges of existing distros and supports most phone functions. Available for 25 devices officially/unofficially. Join the community, let's shape the future of mobile Linux! 🚀 https://linmob.net/droidian-project/ #Debian #Halium #libhybris

The good thing with people like @rmader constantly praising the work of @pipewire and @libcamera devs, is that you end up looking at upstream (or at least, actually submitted) kernel patches and make sure camera support for your device gets more future-proof.

In the end, it's very likely @mobian will soon ship a 6.4 kernel for the #PinePhonePro where (almost) all camera-related patches have been submitted upstream already :)

Looks like phones with hardware kill-switches running a fully open-source OS will become increasingly popular here! :blobcatfacepalm: 😢

If your using @gentoo on a @PINE64 PinePhone Pro and also using dracut for making your initramfs. I have updated the /etc/dracut.conf.d/dracut-ppp.conf (https://git.gjdwebserver.nl/gjdwebserver/gjdwebserver-overlay/src/branch/master/sys-kernel/pinephone-sources/files/dracut-ppp.conf) for better driver support. #foss #linux #linuxonmobile

@ZacTheRipper thanks! It worked out and looks so much better now ☺️ Are you aware of a scaling parameter for the virtual keyboard? #mobian #debian #gnome
#linuxonmobile

My #pine64 #pinetab2 is currently building #mobian s linux-rockchip kernel, will add the few required patches to #debian / patches soon and being excited to see if it will boot - next step will be u-boot.. #linuxonmobile

#pine64 #pinetab2 running #debian /#mobian but still with #uboot and #linux #kernel from @danctnix
#linuxonmobile rulezzzz - thanks too all who do a great job in mainlining Device support!

@coucouf

I've adjusted https://wiki.debian.org/Librem5
I didn't know how to do a list in the wiki, so the three files (u-boot, image, etc) look a bit weird currently :P

With the latest librem5-flash-image > 0.0.3 from contrib (iirc @agx has filed an unblock request for it to migrate to testing) it should be reasonably straight forwarding flashing your own images

#debian #librem5 #mobian #LinuxOnMobile

@sonny @Purism@mastodon.social @agx @purism@librem.one

My main point is: Why "fight" among ourselves over some (mostly insignificant) personal preference?

You could be making the exact same point regarding init systems or any other piece of software and I don't think it has much merit (sorry)

PS: I'm happy to discuss this some more next week during the #gnome #mobile #hackfest
over a beer and I hope I didn't come off as confrontational (because that certainly wasn't my intention)

So you have a #linux #phone and have @gentoo running on it. Like a @PINE64 #PinePhone or #pinephonepro . But other ppl are not using xmpp but want to stick with telegram? Well fear not Paper-Plane is now added to my overlay. https://git.gjdwebserver.nl/gjdwebserver/gjdwebserver-overlay/src/branch/master/net-im/paper-plane Happy messaging #foss #linux #gentoo #linuxonmobile

Who was the first person who came with this idea that one operating system could work on both mobile and desktop without changing the base code?

#linuxonmobile

I DID IT

📱 #PocoX3Pro #Droidian #rootfs build 📱

https://github.com/droidian-vayu/device-page/wiki

No adaptation fiddling needed now, you just go and flash droidian through the fastboot, like on the officially supported devices.

And the Full Disk Encryption is now supported!

The pain was too much, I learned things I never though I will, but I did it finally.

@samuelnorbury @poleguy yes, pmOS is a great choice as is my prefelred distro arch linux arm. thanks for the clarification on which device you use, i'm super happy to see more #linuxonmobile in the world

Today I decided to finally compile all the info on #Droidian that I am able to use and make a new installation guide for #PocoX3Pro #vayu

https://github.com/vacuumbeef/droidian-adaptation-vayu/wiki

I wrote a little wiki with installation process and additional hacks and fixes that I was able to make.
I definitely forgot something and there are more things to do, so I will be updating it.

Using @gentoo on a @PINE64 #pinephone or #pinephonepro and dont what to use flatpack? I've added Health (a health tracking app) (https://git.gjdwebserver.nl/gjdwebserver/gjdwebserver-overlay/src/branch/master/gnome-extra/health) and Authenticator (https://git.gjdwebserver.nl/gjdwebserver/gjdwebserver-overlay/src/branch/master/gnome-extra/authenticator) to my overlay so you can now just compile them locally instead of using flatpack. #linux #foss #linuxonmobile.

Wow, this might even affect #MobileLinux, such as #Mobian or #PureOS, doesn't it?

Had a spare OnePlus 6 at hand, so I installed postmarketOS on it, just to see how it was.
I will put a SIM card in it when I’ll get some time.
I can already tell that it looks quite smooth, but camera is not working… #Postmarketos #Phosh #linuxonmobile

Can you try #gnome mobile on desktop linux? Maby in a VM?

#linuxmobile #linuxonmobile

@fsfe @postmarketOS 'based on the original Android OS': not a correct description of postmarketOS, you are thinking of mods such as LineageOS. PostmarketOS is developing an Android-free OS for mobile devices.
