I had been using my Gemini PDA with un-rooted Android
since I purchased it. I think the reason I forgot I even
owned this device was that I have plenty of Android
devices. There was no reason for me to ever pull out
this device. It had no use case.
Then I realized I only used termux on this device.
Period. The only app I used was one that simulates Linux.
On a device that can actually run Linux. So I decided
to reflash my Gemini PDA to only run Debian Linux.
I am using DWM, slstatus, emacs 29 (compiled from
source), mate terminal (for ease of config), nerd fonts,
nmtui (for network), and rclone (for dropbox sync).
You need to completely remove libreoffice before you
can apt upgrade or you will be in dependancy hell and
apt will not work until you claw your way out. That
aside, installing Linux on this device has breathed a
new life into it. It now has a purpose. Why did I not
do this sooner?
