Debian noroot

What is Debian noroot?

This app provides a Debian Buster distribution with the Xfce desktop environment, without the need to root your device. It requires 1.2 GB of free internal storage space, and a mouse or stylus is highly recommended. The app is not a full Debian OS, but rather a compatibility layer based on PRoot, which allows you to run user-land Debian applications. Your device will not be rooted during the installation process. Certain functionality, such as running Wireshark or Aircrack-ng, will not work as these tools require root access. This is not an official Debian.org release. To install packages, you can open the Terminal and use the commands "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get install packagename". You can also check the full list of available packages in the Synaptic package manager. The app supports packages like Synaptic, GIMP, Inkscape, Clementine, Chromium, VLC, Mplayer, Audacity, and LMMS. When using VLC and Audacity, you will need to select PulseAudio as the audio output. To run Chromium, you can use the command "chromium --disable-dev-shm-usage --no-sandbox". However, some packages, such as Firefox-ESR, LibreOffice, Konqueror, Kodi, Kdenlive, and Blender, as well as anything requiring OpenGL, will not work with this app
