UBports coming to more devices |
 |
People wishing to run a GNU/Linux operating system on their mobile devices are a little closer to that goal as UBports is making progress on multiple fronts. The project's latest newsletter mentions some work being done on specific ports: "Alfred reported progress with porting. A lot of new devices keep appearing. Builds are now on the server for many although with graphical support in the form of the installer not as yet. Galaxy Note 4, Xperia Performance and others are now up. Instead of individual branches under the names of those porting devices, everything now appears in a single channel. It is also immediately clear which version and architecture are involved, so it is much easier to understand and use. Erfan has done a lot more. Android 9 device names show up correctly on the push server. Kernel patches have been implemented to remedy the missing battery charge indicator on some devices. Brightness, time settings and other indicators have all seen fixes. Notkit has developed a working port for the F(x)tech device with the sliding keyboard! Marius has UT ‘running’ on his PineBook Pro although it is not usable at all at the moment. There is for example no mouse at all..."
There has also been progress in running UBports on a generic system image (GSI) which would open up possibilities for running UBports on many Android devices. A post on xda-developers discusses how a generic base can allow UBports to run on multiple devices. |
