Very cool.
> libhybris allows glibc Linux programs to load the standard Android graphics drivers
I don't quite follow why you need that? This runs on a real full Android, so surely drivers already work?

  The graphics drivers on Android are compiled with Bionic where as most Linux distributions are compiled with glibc. You can't really mix and match them.
  Desktop linux apps still need to link to the system graphics driver to get hardware acceleration.

    Oh, right. I forgot about that part. Thx.

    That's just the tip of massive ridiculous endless NIH reinvention. Nothing works at all the same in any way. Android has its own Surface Flinger windowing system, with its own drivers. Nothing is at all alike the rest of Linux userlands, from libc up.

Oh that Is cool especially on a foldable you can run some interesting apps on it. And with wine + fex even more crazy stuff.
