Why haven't you switched from Android to Linux on your mobile devices yet...

Why haven't you switched from Android to Linux on your mobile devices yet? Even a Raspberry Pi makes a better power user device than any lagdroid phone/tablet. First of all it has HDMI and 4 full sized usb ports.

this is autistic

Are you not on Sup Forums?

yay raspberry pi!

buy my service on

Plan on dualbooting gentoo and Lineage OS on my nexus

ive always wanted to have something nice and lightweight running on my little tablet, but i never figured out how i could boot into an ISO on it! please teach me senpai, how can i do that?

buy raspberry pi or run Linux on top of android using Linux Deploy.

ah, well i do have a raspberry pi already. how would i go about using a tablet as a screen though? vnc?

>run Linux on top of android using Linux Deploy.
now we are just stacking laglinux over lagdroid
solves nothing

Yes. You can even set up a VNC connection via
USB.

b-but vnc connection to use as a monitor is retarded?

That's why I bought a Raspberry pi Screen and connected a proper keyboard to it.
Running linux on top of Android sucks balls. Use native linux.

No, why?
VNC via USB is pretty fast. Get a proper keyboards and mouse, hook them up to RPI and get a fast VNC client like that open source one.

Because your setup is not very mobile. FFS you got parts all over.

I'm waiting for my case to arrive.
It's a multitouch display you know?
I'll just glue the battery pack on the right side of the device and connect keyboard only when I need it.

bump

But android is Linux?

But not GNU/Linux
I want my Thunderbird on my mobile device.

Today on "How autistic can you be" we have all of Sup Forums competing against OP!

And OP wins again!

I found some USB speakers. Now my Pi will wake me up with music.

>1gb ram

I can't make traditional phonecalls and SMS with it.

As a pi project I'm going to make a Freeplay zero.
Which is basically a emulator boy.
I'm waiting for the board and the game-boy advance shell to arrive in the mail.

fuck off

autism

fuck off

This question just occurred to me: what would one call an inferior tablet using Sup Forums parlance? A tabletlet?

can the pi play 1080p 60fps youtube videos without stuttering?

That looks fucking awesome dude. I've always wanted to do something like this, and I actually have money now.
I now have a new project idea. Thanks.

The "Rock64" supposedly can.
It can also do it at 4k.

liliputing.com/2017/07/rock64-quad-core-4k-ready-single-board-pc-25.html

Yea, once I get it up and running on cabled power I'm going to buy a drone battery and put it where the regular battery would be.
I have to check the specification for the first.
Apparently they build a charge controller into the board as well so it will charge through the red board you see in the picture.
You just plug it into a power source with a micro USB cord.

4k output capability doesn't mean it can play 4k content

Install Gentoo Project: Android

Why the fuck would I need a 1080 video playback on a 800x480 screen?
And yes, I can play them if I download them first.

Will official Rpi touchscreen work with orange pi or any other sbc?

>switch
I don't know how.

>Even a Raspberry Pi makes a better power user device

How'd you figure, when it's aimed at Low power and not a lot of power users use a:> Linux or b:>BSD - ever since the threat landscape changed and they realised the "bank" and a load of insider traders was fucking them all slowly in the ass!

Is there a way to use cellular data with a rig like this? If so I'm all for it

I've been considering/looking into installing Linux on my Blackberry 8800 so that I can use my own programs easily (and in the language of my choice)
I only use it for phone calls and SMS at the moment and it'd be nice to be able to access my email without connecting to a Blackberry Enterprise server

Actually I did, kinda. See:
slatedroid.com/topic/76993-debian-on-crystal/

This was years ago, just then devicetree changes for Linux on ARM happend and debian for embedded was killed (kinda).

To bad, it was really hard for me to get to this point, I just didn't have the will to jump through another bunch of rings and bark to get things done on linux. Thus, video accerelation an sound never worked on this port. The tablet now collects dust as the android is outdated and I have no idea on how to build linux on it today even if I wanted to do it.

USB 3G dogle?

What is on this photo exactly?
Tablet as a screen for Pi?
Co to za ksążka?

saved

also, "shit" script is awesome.

raspberry pi official 7'' touchscreen
You can also use a tablet if you want but that costs extra power.

What?

Stop being an autist and buy a cheapo x60/x200/x220. Whatever is cheaper than your autistic setup.

>Why haven't you switched from Android to NON-ANDROID Linux on your mobile devices yet?
Because there is no desktop/non-android system for mobile deviecs.Simple

script on github is named "shit".
It draws images in your terminal using ASCII characters.

It's too big and heavy

^

You have to get a dongle supported by linux kernel and with unlocked voice/sms capabilities for example Teracom 7.2Mbps 3G USB Data Card

Because most SoC manufacturers provide sources only for android, and these drivers don't work with actual GNU/Linux. I'd love to have an actual Linux phone that isn't out of date in every single way like n900/n9 or basically impossible to buy like Jolla devices.

that's why I tell you to get a linux microcomputer and hook it up to touchscreen.

It won't be that portable as my android device drogi anonie.

Good enough?

I'd just like to interject for a moment, what you refer to as linux is in fact gnu/linux which uses the linux kernel as with android.

Well, on most non-rooted android devices there is no GNU coreutils, so that's not GNU/Linux.
It's not about size, it's about the fact that it would disassemble in my pocket, or that I would have to assemble the whole device when I want to use it. The closest to good portable GNU/Linux device is Pyra, but it doesn't really exist as of yet, and is too expensive. But at least Pyra doesn't look like a bomb to non-technical people.

what is that program that has ascii video?

mplayer and vlc

>have an Android device that can run a ton of useful apps quite quickly
>Expend time installing a hobbyist OS with no software so you can browse the same 2 websites

literally anything that suppoets libascii

That's pretty rad OP.

Link? Also how hard would this be to setup?

Because I've already switched from Android to BB10OS.

I have no clue how to boot premade images on my chink tablet. FEL mode MAYBE triggered but don't do anything, so can't fire up the system.

In theory OPIE can still be build.
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Palmtop_Integrated_Environment
opie.sourceforge.net/wiki/Features
github.com/opieproject/opie
It got some nice updates.
There is even the ability to run X11 Applications (if added to the build) but the API is pretty well documented opie.sourceforge.net/wiki/DocsHowTo so building native Applications shouldn't be to hard.

However I really just tried to build it myself and failed. "Qvaluestack.h 52:40:error" something.

It would be so cool if some user would decide to revive this. It still uses the Qt-embedded-2.3.10 Version of the toolchain. Basically when it was still in the Hands of Trolltech. After Nokia aquired it, it went superbloat and post-Nokians take the bloat as how it is.

Clean your shit

Look! It's the Pyra shill!

Because my phone doesn't support Sailfish OS

fucking matplotlib on rasbian has a bug and my scripts crash. Thanks Jessie!
