From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm currently messing around with Termux and trying to install Linux through AnLinux, Andronix and UserLAnd just for fun.
I have mixed success in AnLinux. I successfully installed and started Lubuntu but it was running pretty slowly. I wasn't able to replicate the install a while later. Also I totally failed to get ArchLinux running.
Now I'm trying Andronix. Wish me luck!
Do you have any experience running a Linux on your mobile?
Getting the proot distro to output an x11 display to the vnc server seems to be a bit more challenging that I was hoping. If I can find a guide that helps me figure this out, I'll post a link here.
I have Debian working. When I just installed xfce4 it didn't work. Some error about not contacting settings server. But I tried installing xfce4 with tasksel (also selected graphic environment) and then had no problem at all. I've not tried wit other desktops. Also tried with Ubuntu and it worked just installing xfce4 without using tasksel.
I changed the version to Debian Sid and I've had no problems yet. I'll update if things change.
