Amazing! How did you develop the application for this? I have a few of these, am a programmer, and am familiar with linux but don't know how I would get to the command line on one of these. I have a Powkiddy and two Anbernics.

@donsta The Powkiddy runs JELOS, which is basically a minimal aarch64 Linux distribution. I didn't bother looking for a cross-compilation toolchain, but instead chose an aarch64 Debian from the same time period (2023, I think) and ran it in a VM. In this Debian VM, I did a normal Lagrange build. I statically linked most dependencies, and thankfully the ones that had to be dynamic were compatible enough to work when they got loaded from JELOS instead of Debian. I also did a custom static build of SDL2 with support for the Rockchip GPU. All in all, a little hacky but it only took a few days to work out the kinks.

First post from my RGB30 Linux handheld console. As suspected, typing on this new on-screen keyboard is tedious, but it works! I've got Lagrange running on this thing, obviously. :)
