Arch Linux with KDE Plasma Desktop on Android | No Root
Hello friends,
In this article we will be installing KDE Plasma desktop on Arch Linux. KDE Plasma with Arch Linux is quite tricky but with this method you can easily use it.
Prerequisite :
Termux
Installation :
First we will install Arch Linux via proot-distro (official utility from Termux)
pkg update -y && pkg install proot-distro -y && proot-distro install archlinux
Login to it
proot-distro login archlinux
Now update & fully upgrade archlinux, make sure to enter Y when it asks for full upgrade
pacman -Syu
Install KDE Plasma desktop
pacman -S plasma-desktop
Now create a new session in Termux (by swiping from left and click on new session) and install vncserver
pkg install x11-repo && pkg install tigervnc xorg-xhost -y
Start vncserver
vncserver -listen tcp :1
DISPLAY=:1 xhost +
Now again go to archlinux and paste following in termux
echo "rm /run/dbus/pid
dbus-daemon --system
DISPLAY=:1 dbus-launch startplasma-x11" >> /usr/local/bin/vncstart && chmod +x /usr/local/bin/vncstart
Start Plasma desktop
vncstart
To stop vnc just use ctrl c and kill vnc server by executing following in Termux
vncserver -kill :1
