Dear
specialists,
My name is Janusz Chmiel. And I would like to kindly suggest yours
team, if it would be possible to extend Gnome desktop environment so it would be
possible to run this excellent desktop environment on userspace variants of
Linux. So in situations, where connection to system Bus is not available,
because real Linux kernel and dependent Linux services are not
available.
I do not see at all,
and because Gnome is The onlyone official Linux desktop environment which
contain The latest accessibility infrastructure, I would like to allow also
Linux users who do not see to use this desktop also on strictly userspace
variants of Linux.
To speak
clearly.
I AM running Android
8.0 with Termux Android app. I AM running Proot Termux app which uses backtrace
to monitor system calls so Linux distro can run on Android device. I AM using
X11 protocol and VNC protocol. To interact with X11 sessions, I AM running
Android app BVNC PRO. Since its build in keyboard support is The best to control
Orca screen reader.
But because Proot do
not run real Linux kernel, I can not run Qemu on non rooted Android device so
fast that it would bring usable speed and enough fast Linux operating system. I
would had to run Kqemu kernel module which is illusion on non rooted Android
system.
So I AM helpless to
use system Bus. Gnome-session and unfortunately Gnome-shell need to have access
to The system bus.
How complex would be
to extend The Gnome source code so it would be also possible to run it without
connection to The system Bus?
Is it possible to
change compilation and build scripts for Gnome so I would be able to simply run
Gnome-session and all run-time errors related to The errors connect to system
bus would be only displaied and all Gnome modules would run without severe
stability issues?
Sure. The best would
be to extend Gnome-session and other Gnome parts including gnome-shell so it
would be possible to run Gnome with no need to use The connection to The system
bus at all.
The question
is.
If this approach
would not degradate complex C language routines which have been developed by
yours professional team.
I Am very sorry that
I have intruded you with this idea.
If somebody would
have A good will to debate about my idea atleast outside of this professional
mailing list, I will be very nicely impressed.
I Am really
appreciating yours complex programmers work. But I can not develop fast Qemu
which would run Linux OS so fast like Qemu which uses Kqemu Linux kernel module.
I would had to be absolvent of some prestige university on USA. To develop such
revolutionar code.
Thank you very much
for yours kind access to my plea.
With The kindness
regards and with The deepest possible appreciation to yours professional
team.
Janusz
