Mobile Linux Adventure 2

In this document I disown Ubuntu Touch and try out Droidian, another true Linux OS for smartphones.

I will be making callbacks to part 1, so it's worth a skim if you haven't read it yet.

Droidian (a Mobian derivative)

Ubuntu Touch was an abject failure, but I still have faith in the concept. This time I will be using Droidian with the Phosh GUI. Droidian is a modification of Mobian, so I expect many things will be the same between them. Thankfully, Droidian also supports the Google Pixel 3a, so I can reuse the same phone from last time.

Mobile Linux Adventure

In this document I describe the process of installing and using Ubuntu Touch, a true Linux OS for smartphones.

Background

First, a small rant. ("Shut up, just take me to the Linux stuff")

Over the past 15 years or so, smartphones have weaseled their way into every aspect of our lives. We use them for social media, messaging, photography, online banking, and sometimes -- if we're truly unlucky -- phone calls. We also use them for 2-Factor Authentication, a form of ID arguably stronger than our actual government IDs. Phones aren't just useful, they're necessary. Government entities and big tech are well aware of this fact, and take advantage of it to harvest unprecedented amounts of data on everybody. Carriers also take advantage of this fact by bleeding customers for money at every turn. All of this is with little to no regulation or oversight.

Halomaps forum (http://forum.halomaps.org) is shutting down as of February 1, 2023. All forum content has been archived, and will be made available at this link. I will be periodically updating the archive until the forum closes, at which point I will post the download link on this page.

Update: The forums have officially closed and been replaced with a read-only HTML archive. I crosschecked the official archive with what I cloned, and have confimed the contents are the same. I will still be uploading my archive. I just need to do a once-over on it and make sure all the links work.

Update 2: As promised, it's finally here!

Setting up Linux (Pop_OS!) on the GPD Win 2

This is a guide for setting up Pop_OS! 20.04 LTS on the GPD Win 2. The majority of things work out of the box. For the things that don't, I have documented my setup here. Most of this stuff was found by other users, so I'm just collecting all this information in one place with the hope that it'll be helpful for others.

Things that work out of the box

• Wifi
• Bluetooth
• Touch screen
• Volume control buttons
• Screen brightness control buttons
• Go to sleep on lid close
