Hi.
I wonder if anyone got app-containers/waydroid working.
Any hints on how to get it working are welcome.
waydroid session start
[17:04:41] OSError: container failed to start
I have:
app-containers/waydroid-1.4.0::guru USE="systemd -apparmor" PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="python3_10 -python3_9 -python3_11" 0 KiB

If you don't use apparmor you can follow instructions
| Code: | if ! use apparmor; then
ewarn "If you use app-containers/lxc without apparmor, make sure you deleted or commented out in waydroid LXC config"
ewarn "(generated after waydroid init) in /var/lib/waydroid/lxc/waydroid/config the following string:"
ewarn "lxc.apparmor.profile = unconfined"
ewarn "or waydroid experiences crash during launch"
ewarn "See also https://github.com/waydroid/waydroid/issues/652"

I'm trying to get waydroid working too but without any success so far. The problem seems to be an impossible permission situation.
"waydroid init" is required to be run as root. Using "su" to become root and running the command works.
"waydroid show-full-ui" is required to be run by user. If run by root I get an error "ERROR: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.". If I run it though as user I get the error "ERROR: WayDroid is not initialized, run "waydroid init"".
If I try to run "waydroid init" as user I though get "ERROR: Action "init" needs root access".
It is impossible to satisfy all these conditions at once. How is one supposed to run waydroid on GenToo?

I also try to run waydroid. My know how on wayland and waydroid is pretty low.
During emerge I observed missing kernel options, additionally there are Android binder options.
So I updated my kernel.
I observed two new groups dnsmasq, lxc, so I added my regular user to it.
After installation I did | Code: | | emerge --config app-containers/waydroid |
instead of as root and it worked fine.
I did | Code: | | rc-service wayland start |
and from the user shell | Code: | | waydroid session start |
this however gives me DBus.Error.FileNotFound
I do not have "needs root access" errors
I switched to SDDM and the DBus error is gone. But there is new RuntimeError: Command failed: % /usr/lib/waydroid/data/script/waidroid-net.sh start
shows me still a lot of missing network related kernel options.
I guess fixing them with a new kernel is the next step?
Or does | Code: | | waydroid session start |
create some error logs? |

Here's pretty much everything required by Waydroid that isn't enabled in sys-kernel/gentoo-sources by default:
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1165699.html
Notice that some options MUST be disabled in order for Waydroid to work correctly.
I also recommend emerging =app-containers/waydroid-9999 from the xira overlay. In the link above I mention the guru overlay, but this xira package allows updating to the latest version without issues (at least for me). Either way, when I was trying to get it to work properly, most problems would occur exactly because the kernel wasn't set up correctly. It was easy to confirm this by running Waydroid under with sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-bin . Unfortunately the official documentation barely mentions anything about setting up a kernel for waydroid, which is why I posted a separate thread here on the forums.

New Kernel with many new options, probably I will test sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-bin es well but still same error. | Code: | | waydroid session start |
fails with the script
| Code: | | /usr/lib/waydroid/data/scripts/waydroid-net.sh start |
fails. It should be possible to debug this script to see a bit more. I use OpenRC and Weston.

@lindegur
You should try waydroid with sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-bin just to see if this is an issue with the kernel config or not. Just to narrow down the source of the problem. If it works with sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-bin , then there's something wrong with the kernel configuration. Earlier I would get that error when something wasn't enabled withing the netfilter. Also you can check the log by typing in waydroid log

sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-bin works. I get | Code: | waydroid session start
[16:06:40] Android with user 0 is ready
[16:06:40] Established ADB connection to Waydroid device at 192.168.240.112. |
Now some work to do is finding out the missing kernel configs.
And not to be discussed here: How to mouse and keyboard the android apps under weston (or an alternative as sway, or ....). |
