[–] jet@hackertalks.com [S] 1 point 3 years ago (1 child) That's really interesting. Are you using a keyboard and mouse? Or is this like on a Android desktop setup? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Fubarberry@sopuli.xyz 5 points 3 years ago (1 child) By default the app is just a terminal with an on-screen keyboard. Packages installed and run through it are normally terminal only, although there is some amount of support for connecting to a separate app that runs an x server. There are several other projects that download arm Linux distributions, and install them inside termux to get a full desktop going though. Normally for these you actually interact with the desktop through a VNC client connected to a localhost VNC running on the Linux distro. A VNC client is a good way to handle accessing the desktop since most of them come with a lot of UI design/polish for controlling a desktop computer via a phone screen. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] cousinofjah@beehaw.org 4 points 3 years ago I had no idea Termux was so extensive. Probably better for tablets or DeX-enabled phones? permalink fedilink source parent
