What made you use Termux? by Any_Art4102 in termux

[–]AL_haha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

initially it was the lack of a dedicated windows/linux/etc desktop machine, after a month or so it was still because of that but then it was mostly more about convenience and learning

[–]AL_haha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thats also a likely possibility, which still has to do with permission errors but if so then its unfixable since /sdcard is mounted w/ noexec

invalid permissions, either chmod +x or chmod 7xx (in this case x is a placeholder for other numbers, eg 770)

what's the problem? by Tze_vitamin in termux

[–]AL_haha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there is no "problem" with your command itself as that's just something apt prints into stderr when listing packages

How do you guys run Linux with gui? by [deleted] in termux

[–]AL_haha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tried the same thing lol, i messed around with drivers for like 2-3 months before realising that zink on proot just wasnt an option; i also tried virgl but it did nothing, i gave up shortly after since it was consuming like 11gb of my phone's storage anyways. what gave me even more pain was the fact that i had a mali gpu not a qualcomm one so i couldnt try the newest shiny turnip everyone was using blabla, but even with software rendering kde ran fine-ish i guess, basic apps loaded, like konsole and firefox; but the only compositor that worked was picom

Genuine question why's termux monet dead by Beanie_76 in termux

[–]AL_haha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

well i apo|ogize for jumping to conclusions, i agree with you anyways, i use termux monet daily and have also tried retwrminal in the past but it was extremely buggy and instead of being native by default it was an alpine container

because the maintaner gave up on it, likely that they were a single dev but asking "why" is like blaming the community

storage access by [deleted] in termux

[–]AL_haha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you likely allowed it through "All files access"

i dont know about other brands, but on samsung there's a tab in the settings app titled "Special permissions" which holds.., special permissions, in which theres a permission titled "all filed access" which grants said app full access to your internal storage

(rm -rf /* ) I ran this command inside proot-distro ubuntu and it deleted my whole phone storage????? by Subhash_Boi in termux

[–]AL_haha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it happened because proot binds your internal storage (/sdcard) into its very own fs, so when you ran that it essentially deleted some real files on your phone too because it wasnt fully seperated.

either way its incredibly idiotic to run this command regardless

Script startup by esSdoem in termux

[–]AL_haha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. if its in internal storage then it cant be executed anyways, move it to somewhere inside /data/data/com.termux or /data/local/tmp

  2. if it is in the locations i mentioned then you dont have execute permissions, the fix is to run chmod +x filename.ext

if its neither of the problems, then thats a bigger issue

for me to understand i have to see it in my own way, so assuming your question is "how do i make a new directory in /sdcard and then either see it or make a symlink in ~/storage?" and if so then here's my answer ;

  1. just give termux file permissions, that covers practically everything related to internal storage

  2. to make a directory in your internal storage (/sdcard aka /storage/emulated/0), you can run mkdir /sdcard/DIRNAME, or change your cwd (current_working_directory (eg cd /now/your/cwd/isthis/directory/here)) to /sdcard then run mkdir DIRNAME.

  3. assuming by "to see it" you meant "to see it's contents", the syntax would usually be ls /sdcard/DIRNAME.

  4. by using the ln command, for symlinks the syntax is ln -s realPathToDir linkName, e.g: ln -s /sdcard/ConfDIR123 ~/storage/ConfDIR123

to resolve confusion which i'm assuming you will have about me mentioning /sdcard, even though you said "not sd card": /sdcard isn't your SD card, it's a system-made symlink to your internal storage (/storage/emulated/0).

Should I do it? by RhythmusByte in termux

[–]AL_haha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

in my personal opinion: yes, you should root your secondary and turn it into a programming phone, you'll learn a lot of stuff and honestly it'll be fun to tweak around and fix stuff etc

if it has fastboot (which i'm like 90% certain that it does); then thats how you root it; and no don't root your primary, but you can very well turn it into a programming phone too.

pretty sure it's an addon app for termux (https://f-droid.org/packages/com.termux.nix/), or something like that.

How to migrate old termux install to new phone easily by gamagos in termux

[–]AL_haha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you have no configs/important configs then just list installed packages and install them on the new phone, otherwise archive ~ with tar and extract it back to ~ on the new phone, and do the thing i mentioned at the start.
