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:

same error

PulseAudio (or pipewire-pulse) should be listed as a dependency, since waydroid won't boot without it.

error pycache already in file sysrem

Not sure if this is an issue with packaging, or waydroid git itself, but the waydroid settings app asks for a password, but then none of the scripts have elevated permissions. Also on the waydroid settings app if you click docs, it crashes the waydroid settings app.

$ 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

rockyest commented on 2025-06-06 02:17 (UTC)

why is it flagged?

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'
