Currently it is Debian as that is what the upstream feature uses and downloads. Usage of other, better suited distros would be looked at in the future. It has to be a distribution with ARM support. Potentially Fedora.
obviously this won't be fast or replacing a PC anytime soon, but it's a matter of growing improvement, there's still a hell of a lot to work on with this. We're doing it first and better than other distributions.
This is Android 15 QPR2 but yes. There are some hidden feature flags for 16 that are enabled to let this happen + some additional patches.
Pixel Tablet clearly has capability for such accessories but they don't make it. It's a very neglected product. The next generation Tablet should have more effort. The Pixel Tablet is the only tablet and doesn't support all the flagship security features like MTE either since it's a 7th generation device...
Thanks for the great hint. I tried to install the linux VM-Terminal on my Pixel 6a (Graphene OS). The installation fails: java.lang.RuntimeException: Connection to terminal timedout Then I had to turn off my VPN-Connection and it worked. So seems as the download servers block VPN-Connections.
It's compatible with VPNs, the issue is that the OS is not excluding the local network traffic between the VM and Terminal app from going through the VPN which breaks it. It's something to work on. You can get through this without disabling the VPN everywhere else by making a fresh user profile and enabling the Terminal app there.
