Day 3 of Trying to Install KDE on Android...
I'm officially DONE.

Dropping a video soon:

“5 Reasons You Should Never Try Installing KDE on Your Phone (or Any OS)” *No joke

Maybe some day in the future #chocolatey will respect #userland installations. For #security reasons, none of my clients allow installation of any program with administrative privilege.

“Katya Adler: Disdain for Europe in US Signal chat horrifies EU”

All the more reason for the EU and other countries to quicken the severing of ties with USerlandia. The faster the country crashes and burns the quicker it can recover. They talk about a “Kill Switch”. Foreign governments need to pull their own switch now.

Pues ya estaría instalado Ubuntu 22.04, con XFCE, en mi móvil Android.

Hallo zusammen,

https://anonsys.net/display/bf69967c-1867-a911-21d2-310418287856

And OFC #toybox is a good baseline in terms of #userland - espechally when I want a #GNU-free #Linux distro because there are very good reasons beyond #GNUtils being a bloated mess...

@Danathar @todd_a_jacobs@infosec.exchange True! You can be #POSIX compliant and still frustrate any sane *nix user's expectations about how systems work, or do things in non-portable ways. Heck, I use the #fish_shell which doesn't even *try* to be POSIX compliant, but I love working with it anyway and the docs are solid.

I think the real issue is that so much of #Darwin #userland is poorly documented, if at all. That just makes deviations from the norm more painful than necessary IMHO.

#Userland
Anyone know anything about it? Have any input? Experiences?

@RL_Dane a #hex #editor needed to be used in order for the #boot #floppy for #Linux to be created
The #shell was also cross compiled
Otherwise you would stand nowhere after the kernel has booted
The same counted for the #userland utilities #ls #mkdir etc. Those came from #RichardStallman
The initial file system was #OpenSource #minix from #GNU #Herd

Finally #GCC was compiled natively
Then a native version of the kernel could be compiled, from Linux itself

Weiß jemand wie man eine Bildschirmtastatur für Ubuntu in UserLAnd installiert. Das Package florence kennt er nicht und bei onboard passiert nichts. #android #userland #ubuntu

Has anyone run #Phosh or #PlasmaMobile in #UserLAnd yet and is it even possible? So far I only used CLI distros with it but my #Pinephone is gone for a while now (the cops took it) and it would be kind of cool to get #LinuxPhone desktops to work on the #Android tablet I borrowed!

@topher #Linux because it's a #Userland issue, not #Kernel.

Also unlike #macOS and #Windows, it doesn't delay #fixes or includes #Govware #backdoors - at least any reputable #distro...

@landley @DavittoKun *nodds in agreement*

I don't expect anyone maintaining, designing or building #CriticalInfrastructure to ever reach out to me or even use OS/1337, but if those developing i.e. medical IT take a look at this and decide to use a clean and minimalist #Linux, #FreeBSD, #OpenBSD or even #illumos - based distro with #toybox or another compact #Userland instead of some botched "embedded" Version of Windows, then already that's the kind of change I want to see...

I mean it would be cool if they used and contributed to #OS1337 but if I wanted to force them then I should've made some commercial distro akin to #WindRiverLinux or #VxWorks instead, and I don't...

This is slowly driving me insane.
The promise of having a computer in your pocket is so close.
Modern #Smartphone has enough processing power to do most if not all basic tasks that people use computers for.
But #software for this is severely lacking. Especially on #OpenSource side, when you #DeGoogle your phone.
* bad external monitor support in #AOSP / #LineageOS
* #UserLAnd development halted
* #limboemu development halted

It was going so well, but now suddenly no interest
What am I missing?

@coolelectronics why not?

I'd not be surprised if that's gonna be the case.

#toybox, the underlying #userland, includes even an #http server!

@joelle It’s a several-times-over reheated take that unfortunately seems fresh every year. I’ve heard @davew call “no breakage” his Rule 1 for decades, going back to the #UserLand #Frontier days.

But what I do agree with is that #Dropbear exists so why should one reimpement yet another #SSH #Server and/or #Client when the bare minimum #dbclient can be as little as <200kB is beyond me.
