Okay, maybe not so dull, but it was more hoops than I figured I’d have to jump through, but I finally got the basics all set up and working!

🐧

Edit: I basically followed this guide:

Plus, if you don’t have an external keyboard, I highly suggest the Hackers Keyboard app.

Edit 2, some semi quick testing…

  • Synaptic ✅
  • Firefox ✅
  • GIMP ✅
  • VLC ✅
  • gedit ✅
  • ghex ✅
  • LibreOffice 🚫

    Plus, in case you need an onscreen keyboard with basically all the buttons (you probably will unless you have an external keyboard), I highly suggest Hacker’s Keyboard

    I’m still getting things set up, but yeah it even runs Firefox (but you gotta install that yourself) 👍

    It probably runs quite a bit more than that too, but I need to do some house cleaning to free up some more space. I’m sure I can find some apps I ain’t ever gonna use…
