TL;DR
- Google has added a tabbed interface to the Terminal app in Android 16 Beta 3.
- The Terminal app lets you run Linux apps in a virtual machine on your Android device.
- Adding tabs makes it easier to multitask, as you can issue commands without having to wait for a process to complete.
RDPing from Android into the VM after installing a desktop environment:
Just discovered this and want to try a full linux desktop. But what RDP you installed app for this?
aRDP - it’s open source and despite the ugly UI it works very well.
newbie question but why use rdp instead of VNC? is RDP better for this purpose?
I think RDP is better in general. Ubuntu for example changed its default desktop sharing to RDP from VNC a couple of LTSes ago.
aRDP is crashing or closing my connection. So i tried Avnc (FDroid) and it feels ok but need to test further
If you report a bug for this, there’s a decent chance it would get fixed.
Im good with AVNC. So far, i find it similar performance with aRDP.
