Here are the things I did to come to a point where waydroid launches but doesn't work.

You can build/install the anbox kernel modules on openSUSE TW using https://github.com/choff/anbox-modules

I used a trick mentioned at https://github.com/waydroid/waydroid/issues/144 to install pyclip to fix clipboard issues in log

I also spotted it requires python38-gbinder (not python36-gbinder) as stated in the package.

On my system anbox from official snap package launches/works fine. However, I am stuck in

Exception in thread Thread-2: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib64/python3.8/threading.py", line 932, in _bootstrap_inner self.run() File "/usr/lib64/python3.8/threading.py", line 870, in run self._target(*self._args, **self._kwargs) File "/usr/lib/waydroid/tools/services/clipboard_manager.py", line 28, in service_thread IClipboard.add_service(args, sendClipboardData, getClipboardData) File "/usr/lib/waydroid/tools/interfaces/IClipboard.py", line 15, in add_service serviceManager = gbinder.ServiceManager("/dev/" + args.BINDER_DRIVER) AttributeError: module 'gbinder' has no attribute 'ServiceManager'

Developers(?) say there must be something wrong with the gbinder of Python38 .

These modules are included in the kernel, but they are not included in the config, I would like to use the modules from the kernel of the distribution and not drag them separately, this would save us from many problems. But unfortunately, I have not figured out how to do this yet.

I manually installed python-gbinder from github, not gbinder doesn't complains. But still not starting up.

Did you manage to fix it?

Good news regarding ashmem via reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/w5iugs/comment/ih9esuv/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 Note that 5.18 dropped ashmem in favour of another module that offers similar functionality. Newer versions of Waydroid can use that instead."

@ilgazcl, I'm not certain that that's substantial enough to be good news, considering the relevant Bugzilla ticket still lists support as WONTFIX, right? (https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:Dead_Mozay:waydroid/waydroid#comment-1833111)
