You claim you're a developer but you don't understand there's nothing public you could be compiling.

What do you mean claim, I am a developer and I don’t thing there is anything special about it. I asked a simple question you don’t have to get frustrated about it

Update, we are switching to l4t for android and going to use shield trees.
Currently we have dock, docked audio, bluetooth, wifi, display, touch, nvgpu, emc and fan working.

https://sendvid.com/0crst02s 10fps more on avg than mainline with the same settings (max gpu, 1768 cpu). This is also not using vulkan as it is broken on l4t ubuntu. It will work in android when that is done though.

As much as I love the progress you have made with this have you abandoned getting Android running on the Switch then or am I misunderstanding what you have written?

I didn't think it was Android lol.

Good to know that Android may still be on the horizon

We are redoing android based on l4t as it has more features working. We will start android once everything works on l4t and the los folks get the 7.2 graphics stack working on shield.
Yes, docked audio and dock both work, but not handheld yet.
