Waydroid on Kalpa Desktop and Aeon Desktop
While there is a guide online on how to install Waydroid on Tumbleweed it is unfortunately slightly out-dated and does not translate one by one to Aeon or Kalpa Desktop.
Install Longterm Kernel
First of all install the longterm Kernel as describe on our dedicated documentation page. As Waydroid requires additional Kernel Modules which do work best with the LTS Linux Kernel.
Make sure to also remove the default Kernel as otherwise the system will boot with the default Kernel and don't forget to reboot the machine.
To verify the installation was successful the system should a) boot and b) uname -r should return the current longterm Kernel.
Configure Kernel
Afterwards we need to add an additional parameter to our kernel commandline. This can be done by editing:
sudo vim /etc/kernel/cmdline
Press i to enter Insert mode and add psi=1 at the very end of the cmd line.
It should look similar to this:
root=/dev/nvme0n1p2 [...] psi=1
Save the file by ESC :x
Then rebuild the initrd by running sudo transactional-update initrd
Install Waydroid
sudo transactional-update -c run zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:juzbun:kde-plasma/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/home:juzbun:kde-plasma.repo
sudo transactional-update -c pkg in waydroid anbox-modules
Then reboot the machine and continue below.
Setup Waydroid
First start the Waydroid container service:
sudo systemctl enable waydroid-container
After opening Waydroid and downloading the Android image it will ask for two OTAs. Enter these:
System OTA: https://ota.waydro.id/system
Vendor OTA: https://ota.waydro.id/vendor
That's it, you should now be able to run Waydroid on Aeon and Kalpa.
