I tried using Waydroid on Linux Mint (Edge) only to have it not work and realized that it requires Wayland, and Mint uses X11. So I used VirtualBox to install Fedora 40 Gnome which does use Wayland.
I installed Waydroid as per the instructions and am having seemingly the same issue as on Mint. After downloading "Vanilla" Android and clicking "Done" everything exits out. So I launch the Waydroid application but nothing ever happens.
I then try to manually start Waydroid in terminal but always get "ERROR: WayDroid container service is already running". Then I skip to the second step "waydroid session start" but receive "OSError: container failed to start".
Am I doing something wrong? Is it simply because the VM is causing the issues? Or does WayDroid not work well on Fedora? Thanks
WayDroid has a section about VMs, did you see that ? https://docs.waydro.id/faq/get-waydroid-to-work-through-a-vm
