As of todays -next (git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/k) you can run the without any additional patches using the default mainline arm64 . This means distributions can enable it without trouble from 5.12 onwards. The itself needs some more work but it builds a lot on what we have for the devkit.

New blog post: Weekly GNU-like Mobile Linux Update (Weeks 28 and 29 of 2024) linmob.net/weekly-update-28-29

Can't join (events.gnome.org/event/209/) this year but at least I can watch the live stream on a 📱 running a based shell () and lots of components with a video player using GTK and (). Life could be worse.

I've tagged version 0.0.1 of - a client library.

The project was initiated and developed by
Sadiq (gitlab.gnome.org/pksadiq) in order to add Matrix support to chatty (gitlab.gnome.org/World/Chatty) for @purism

It has been a bit 😴 over the past months but my recent interest in derailed me and I had a look at the code base, cleaned up minor things and figured it might make sense to tag a release so here we go: source.puri.sm/Librem5/libcmat

Thanks @devrtz for the reviews!

@EC_NGI and @nlnet make a dramatic impact to improve our sustainable, privacy and attention respecting #linuxmobile ecosystem. One of the very few answers we have to the duopoly of Android and iOS from Silicon Valley!

Because of that we are saddened about the @EUCommission not mentioning NGI programmes anymore in their draft of funding programmes for 2025. 😢

We signed the open letter, consider doing the same if your project received funding in the past.

PyGObject, the #Python bindings for #GTK, have recently merged support for asynchronous programming, closing an orthogonality gap between Python's async support and GTK having been single-threaded / event based since forever: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pygobje
This ends a decade of using projects such as gbulb that kindly bridged that gap.

New #dbusmock #release with bluez5 improvements, a new ModemManager mock, and fixing MacOS compatibility. Thanks to all contributors!

If you build packages a lot and want to test drive them quickly then "sudo debi" is your friend.

While @suraj_sloth is working on the connector side in I got a chance to add the code for registering/unregistering push gateways in and Chatty (with this I can readily round trip messages up to the UP distributor):

#phosh 0.40 will correctly detect the #steamdeck's panel orientation and start up in landscape mode now! 🎉

Here's a photo of it running on #postmarketOS!

There are still a few rough edges with running pmOS, phosh, and the other UIs we support, on the Steam Deck... but it's still really nice to see one rough edge smoothed out.

pmOS on the Steam Deck, just like the blueberries in the photo, is not quite ready for consumption... 🤞 😄

Thank you @agx for your help and patience!

"#iPhones and #iPads are not general purpose computers" states #Apple. I vehemently disagree!!

I'm happy to announce the availability of my new app "eSIM Manager" on postmarketOS! With it you can manage and install eSIMs on your phone running postmarketOS! No more need to boot into Android to do the same!

🎙️ talked to @phosh main developer @agx:

* Getting involved with Phosh and Librem 5 as happy coincidence

* squeekboard vs. phosh-osk-stub
* Being puzzled by people using Phosh on the PinePhone

When working on the bits for I noticed there's no syntax highlighting in for those so I added some:
