uname -a ?
Unfortunately I’ve to take pictures because I don’t know how to select and copy and then paste text into terminal ![]()
Press and hold pressed and then move my finger doesn’t work
Dear veleno thank you for sharing…however i looking the log: lsmod | grep v4l2 from GnuLinux 6.12 and up
You can at least use the screenshot functionality.
Or you can ssh in and then use copy-and-paste on the source computer.
Honestly no idea why select text is unavailable into terminal ![]()
I mean why developers eliminated it
You can copy using shift+ctrl+c to copy and double / triple tap to select whole words/lines (not great but usually does the trick). For multiple lines wl-copy is more comfortable as it spares you any selction.
I think both of these are usually better methods than taking a picture or trying to do copy and paste on a phone.
@veleno Do you find forky comfortable in your daily use? I’m still on Trixie.
Even if I am not asked: you have much more updates and in rare cases they can break something. There are packages that should be removed with “apt autoremove” from time to time. But you also have the newest version of Phosh etc, which can be an improvement. If you don’t mind many updates, than you probably have more benefits than issues, especially since Phosh has no 1.0 release, yet and so there are still major improvements for the base features.
I’ve been daily driving forky since November. I find it is nice. Interesting to see the improvements little by little over time. I don’t think Mobian is performance optimized in the way dos and Purism are doing things for pureos, but overall, everything I need it to do for me is good. It isn’t perfect, but it is nice to have the latest version of the modules!
@zks1 Sorry for my silly question but do you send SMS with your Librem 5?
No. Mobian, as well as PureOS, is too heavy for Librem 5 due his hardware, making it too slow and burning, draining battery superfast! Considering Librem 5 specs it’s not the best choice! Maybe a future Linux pocketpc in a phone form factor (Librem 5 v.2?), more power with more modern 100% FSF certified hardware, Mobian or PureOS will be a reasonable choice but, for now, don’t in my opinion! Moreover, thanks to @carlosgonz I discovered I don’t like systemd so I moved to PostmarketOS with OpenRT and with sxmo and it’s super fast (it’s fast like one of the last iphones!!!), battery longlast and it doesn’t burn at all!
Of course, I’m using AI support with success (scripts, configurations,…)
I know, Carlos, PostmarketOS isn’t FSF-RYF certified due to blobs but I kept just minimum necessary blobs to use L5 (eg: modem), so “de facto” my OS is like FSF-RYF certified!
I decided to use another smartphone for trashy socials (whatsapp, telegram,…), banking apps and iot apps (vacuum control),… I leave trashy at home switched off and turn it on just in the evenings to use it or carrying it with me, switched off, in my backpack and use it just when necessary!
No waydroid!
That’s the final/perfect solution for me, leaving my Librem 5 “pure” and light and fully functional like modern devices without be isolated from this crazy but necessary society!
Still undecided if use my PC as VPN and internet gate and connect my L5 to it throw tor and/or ssh. I’ll ask it to AI!
Funny to know: PostmarketOS + OpenRT + sxmo was suggested to me by AI!
Two advantages among the others it told me:
- PureOS depends only by Purism, if it goes bankrupted it’ll be interrupted. PostmarketOS instead is Community driven and multi devices developed, it’s almost impossible it’ll be interrupted!
- PostmarketOS is much more frequently updated than PureOS
@veleno thanks for coming back… ![]()
Well, I’m active into PostmarketOS room in Matrix ![]()

cell broadcast warnings: I don’t know what is this
Anything you noticed compared to PureOS?: as I written, faster (boot in shorter time, typing is without delay, firefox faster (although I’m using mainly w3m browser for simple websites (eg: just to read). Temperature great!! Absolutely no warm! The only case it’s warm is when I use it during charging (impossible with pureos).
Exactly! Firefox, for example, but calls too. Also using L5 as hotspot for trashy phone!
You’d try it ![]()
Eg: right now 46º and is charging since 15-20 minutes and under hard working (firefox, terminal commands,…)
