- DeltaTouch - Lomiri - On a Laptop What's different though? Both are Snaps, including the desktop!

Ever wondered what a few key differences between Mainline Linux & libhybris Adaptations are? Look no further than here:

I hope you're looking forward to my FOSDEM 25 talk "Mainline vs libhybris: Technicalities, down to the buffer":

See ya in Brussels!

I've invested some time in making Ubuntu Touch apps available on more targets through an example Snapcraft project, starting right from the default C++ Clickable project and extending it by Snap Packaging. This also allowed for the lomiri-ui-toolkit-core24 to grow, both in capabilities and correctness for a Snap environment. If you also want to see more of your favorite Ubuntu Touch apps on the Ubuntu Desktop then go ahead and look at this example right here:

I've something to share for running Snaps on Halium devices, and it's a gpu-2404 provider for Snaps to take advantage of.

Snapcraft

Install hybris-2404 on Linux | Snap Store

Get the latest version of hybris-2404 for Linux - libhybris libraries for core24 snaps

The idea is to ship userspace drivers as snaps to consume by other snaps, and it's providing the same ABI-compatible equivalents to EGL, GLESv2, etc. Fun fact: the gpu-2404 interface provides a way for hybris-2404 to set up the LD_PRELOAD hack that maybe a handful of devices rely on. It fits beautifully in there.
