Please describe your problem:

No 3rd party app will launch only the default set of apps will launch. What were you expecting?: For the app to start and run. as I tried the same app in the past and it worked perfectly

Additional info: I am running Arch Linux with the zen kernel. I tried using anbox through the aur package with both the gapps and standard image. As a final attempt to get my app working I installed the snap version of anbox to see if it would work, it did not.

i see that binder is false, perhaps the zen kernel misses the binder module

Apr 26 '21 13:04 Fuseteam

I am on kde neon now (I switched to see if it would fix the issue it did not) and I ended up continuing on using it. But anyway, I think it may have something to with my amd mobile hd radeon 4060. As that seems to be the only major difference between this laptop and my main pc which can run the app perfectly.

Apr 26 '21 23:04 linusrg1

@linusrg1 i think it's more that the modules are not loaded probably can you please run anbox system-info again? could you also surround the output with backticks like this when you post it? it makes It easier to read

huh binder and ashmem are true can you run anbox session-manager if it hangs it working and you should be able to launch anbox

Apr 27 '21 23:04 Fuseteam

Ok my app still hangs when opening though. I really do think it has something to do with my gpu driver though.

Apr 27 '21 23:04 linusrg1

i'm gonna assume you run anbox session-manager in the background, running that in the terminal should give some useful info including if there's something wrong with your gpu driver

Apr 28 '21 03:04 Fuseteam

That command gave me no output. Does it have to be run as root?

Apr 28 '21 11:04 linusrg1

no it does not, if it give no output it is running correctly. just verifying: did you leave it running while you launched your app? also which app is it? maybe I can test it locally as well

Apr 28 '21 12:04 Fuseteam

sry for late reply. The app is anime glare https://animeglare.xyz/ i did leave that command running when launching my app.
