Before install Waydroid, make sure that your kernel supports binder and ashmem module (currently only linux-zen does)

Keep in mind that Waydroid only works with Wayland compositors. It also does not work yet with proprietary NVIDIA driver.

After install waydroid and waydroid-image, run this command to initialize the container:

# waydroid init

Then the container can be started via waydroid-container.service. The official project group/channel can be found on:

$ waydroid init -s GAPPS
Already initialized

this is as expected, but the following isn't:

$ waydroid session start
RuntimeError: Command failed: % /usr/lib/waydroid/data/scripts/waydroid-net.sh start

waydroid: /usr/lib/waydroid/tools/pycache/init.cpython-313.pyc è già presente nel filesystem
and so on....

Is it possible to get support for coexistance of multiple "waydroid-image-*" packages somehow?

e.g.:

/usr/share/waydroid-extra/images/system.img exists in both 'waydroid-image' and 'waydroid-image-gapps'
/usr/share/waydroid-extra/images/vendor.img exists in both 'waydroid-image' and 'waydroid-image-gapps'

Please make GTK optional, It's not needed for waydroid to operate.

Adding ibt=off to the vanilla kernel lowers security of your system. You have to switch to linux-zen which has dynamic support of IBT
