You need a phone, tablet, or other device that’s been rooted.

look into proot+termux-x11 if you don’t have a rooted device, it’s still very good.
It’s just quite a bit slower. Everything else other than messing with /sys and android processes works the same.
HDMI, mouse and keyboard and you have an office pc.
Rule of thumb for android users, all of the interesting shit is shit you can’t do unless you’re rooted.
I remember when it used to be all the REALLY interesting stuff was root only, yet a lot of normal interesting stuff was non-root. Now even with root, modern Android can be a pain and the interesting stuff just pales in comparison with true Linux
yeah, linux has me spoiled, just being able to do whatever i want as i please is truly a modern art.
Android made me realize how incredible linux was by being so utterly painful.
Yo dawg, I heard you like Linux. So I built a Linux container for your Linux phone. Now you can enjoy Linux while enjoying your Linux phone.
TLDR: Easy installation of something like Termux, GUI, Kwin and KDE, and a graphical display.
This is really good!
Not really. It seems to use a very different technology from termux.
I recall using an app way back when I used to root and haxor all the mobiles that would do this. Kind of a virtualbox for the Nexus phones/tablets, but it needed root to do it. Will have to look into this, would be interesting if it can do so in user space somehow.
Edit: Damn, still needs root. Was a longshot to be able to hook into system resources without it but was hoping for some bridge function.
if you want a non root solution, termux proot + termux-x11, or eventually termux proot + termux-gui + wayland compositor
You could emulate Android on Linux before, now you can also emulate Linux on Android
The circle of libe is compleet
Now the only question is: How deep can you go?
What’s the difference to “Linux deploy”?
