Homebrew [Release] Linux for the 3DS

[CCF_100]

thats how it should look

It freezes on that screen.

 

[JavaScribe]

Does it look like any existing distro, or is it entirely different?

Nice, but

1. Keyboard doesn't allow ' or " characters to be typed on my O3DS XL, (other characters appear instead (a comma and an angled bracket))

2. weston gui doesn't respond to screen taps, so unusable

3. make password an empty string

4. protip: standard hexdump -Cv command produces output too wide for the o3ds xl screen , instead reduce to 12 byte chunks using hexdump's great format string option:

hexdump -e '"%08_ax " 12/1 " %02X"' -e '" |" 12/1 "%_p" "|\n"' <filename>

Hello?

"But can it run Crysis"

Now imagine how Awesome would look like on a 3DS...

The n3ds xl's top screen has a resolution of 800x240, so it unfortunately wouldn't look like that.

SO, how do I run things from the SD? Or is that not possible?

How do I open Weston Terminal? I tried to, but it didn't do anything. Also how do I unlock it after it goes to sleep and has the unlock screen?

Login incorrect, what do I do?
(also, how do I uncover the password? Having a completely blank password field no matter what is quite disorienting)

---EDIT---
Nevermind, login worked this time. Though, it would be nice to be able to see what I'm typing.

---EDIT #2 (because I am not smart)---
# /start-weston.sh doesn't work for me, instead I have to type simply "weston" and when I do, it seems to load for a sec, and then says: "fatal: environment variable XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is not set. Refer to your distribution on how to get it, or http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/basedir-spec on how to implement it."

I believe the command should be ./start-weston.sh making sure to have that first period

Would it be possible to get this to boot into a tty environment?

 

[jamespoo]
