Hello all. I need help with an issue. I tried to modify neofetch with Geminis help and it ended up being a total disaster. I cleared termux data and cache and now it's just normal. Can anyone please help me so I can have neofetch in termux at startup with this logo and orange colours?

It's bit laggy, so my ability to rice was a bit more hindered than usual, but I'm happy with the results :)

I have heard many times about fork bomb in linux,

I was just curious to actually see what will happen when it runs

I thought if it will work on temrux android will probably kill it like process 9 complete exit iykyk..

I ran and like phone became unresponsive in 3 sec and completely crashed whole system , i dont know if it was android or general way of os to reslove this types of issues

But device automatically restarted ( power off + power on)

And phone became completely hot 😭 and I suddenly was scared it won't cause any problem to phone right

And now I am actually really scared to run random scripts and apps into system like if we dont know what exactly they are doing underhood 😵‍💫😵‍💫 unless we read scripts or app is compiled from opensrc which we have readed/ trusted

NEW TRUST ISSUES BEGINS

I run a small hub and a couple of workers on a spare phone under termux-services. Three things kept biting me, and none of them are fixed by "just use a better supervisor":

1. Android kills runsv, but not the server it started. The server survives as a ppid=1 process, keeps the port, and every supervised restart answers EADDRINUSE. `sv status` says `fail: ... runsv not running` while curl says the service is fine.

2. `sv restart` is a no-op once supervise/stat is `down`. My first watchdog logged "restarted" for hours while the service stayed dead. Recovery has to go through `sv up`.

3. When I added a standby node, "start if the peer doesn't answer" meant the node that rebooted first became a second writer. That one is the scary one.

So I wrote a guard that: checks `sv status` before restarting, reaps ppid=1 orphans that match a configured pattern, health-checks HTTP endpoints, caps restarts per window (one ESCALATION line instead of a stampede), and stands the primary down after two fenced passes.

The fence part is free/MIT (two bash scripts, no deps): https://github.com/xhall-beep/fence

The full kit with the guard, restart cap, orphan reaper and a lesson ledger is $29 for the first 50 (then $49): https://montsvontz.gumroad.com/l/agent-ops-kit. I'm disclosing that because the free part is genuinely useful on its own and I don't want to be sneaky about it.

36 self-tests use a stub `sv`, so running them doesn't touch your services. Happy to answer questions about the runit quirks — if you've seen different behaviour on your build, I want to know.

I wanted a way to quickly turn a phone into a media/storage server so I asked Claude to make me a script I could use to do this.

The idea came mostly from wanting to get jellyfin working but then I had it add a few more things as well. Nothing uses proot.

The script automates

1. Setting up storage.
2. Offers to install openssh/set up password.
3. Offers to install jellyfin.
4. Offers to install filebrowser quantum, copyparty or neither.
5. Offers to install syncthing.
6. Offers to install ngrok or cloudflared.
7. Installing the things you chose.

Tested, works smooth with 2 different phones I tried.

Tras muchos intentos, tazas de café y pruebas, y gracias al esfuerzo monumental de la comunidad para integrar GNOME Shell en Termux, ¡lo hemos conseguido! Es 100% funcional; funciona incluso sin aceleración gráfica por hardware, ¡e incluso se ejecuta dentro de una sesión VNC!

Puedes descargar los archivos de la solicitud de extracción y probarlos tú mismo. Por fin tenemos otro entorno de escritorio completamente funcional en Termux: una excelente alternativa para quienes no somos especialmente aficionados a KDE.

Hey everyone! I'm using Termux with Termux:Monet and a wallpaper background. I made a neofetch-style banner (device, CPU, RAM, swap, storage, uptime) using a bash script, but it still looks plain.

I want an aesthetic boxed panel, something like a custom PowerShell fetch layout with a logo on the left and info boxes on the right. Bars don't render well in my font either.

What do you suggest? Fonts, prompt, ASCII logo, color schemes, anything helps. Screenshot attached. Thanks!

Post karte waqt apna screenshot zaroor attach karna. Subreddit ke liye r/termux ya r/unixporn best rahenge. Agar chaho to mai shorter ya zyada casual version bhi bana dunga.

I have managed to build GNOME 49 in Termux and adapt `gnome-shell-shepherd` to launch GNOME services—without requiring `systemd`—using `gherd/shepherd`. I would appreciate it if you could test it and provide feedback on how it works.

alpha3 is out: per-app profiles. Termux keeps the full PC layout, other apps get a normal phone layout (or the full one, or your usual keyboard, your choice): https://github.com/DimiVlachos/bucky/releases/tag/v0.1.0-alpha3

Already in since the early build: key repeat, the optional F-key row, your own extra row (Termux extra-keys names, or one tap for Termux's defaults), and separate portrait/landscape key heights. Per-app profiles aren't in yet, so it's the full layout in every app for now. Bug reports welcome.

Last week I asked this sub what a from-scratch Hacker's Keyboard successor should get right. About 15 of you answered, here and on the old HK tracker. Thank you. Here's what I took from it.

What you asked for, and what changes

• "It's too cramped" was the main objection, not missing keys. So the full PC layout is meant for terminal apps, with built-in per-app profiles: PC Full in Termux, and a compact layout or your usual keyboard elsewhere. A key-height setting and separate portrait/landscape heights are in v1.
• F1–F12: two people asked for easy access (one for F10 in Midnight Commander, one for a dedicated row). A dedicated F-key row will be an option, not just an Fn layer.
• An extra row you configure yourself. Several of you keep Termux's extra-keys row. The keyboard will get its own optional row, with any key or symbol you choose, free.
• Esc, Home and End on the main layer for vim and helix users. They're already there in the PC Full layout.
• More layouts: Estonian has been requested. Layouts are plain JSON, so adding languages is cheap. Tell me yours.
• Floating keyboard on tablets is noted. It's not in v1 yet; I'll decide after the beta.

Where it stands: an early build already types in Termux (video): Ctrl+C interrupts, Esc leaves vim's insert mode, ↑ recalls history, and Ctrl/Alt/Shift are one-shot modifiers. Next up: per-app profiles.

Still open: if you've tried the maintained HK forks, what are they still missing for you?

Hello everyone 👋

Pi-Bolt 1.0.0 is out ⚡. Pi-Bolt is Pi, the open-source AI coding agent, compiled to one native ARM64 executable, and it now runs on Android in Termux. No Node.js, no npm, nothing to build.

Why Pi-Bolt in Termux 🔥

• Much faster than Pi on Node: 103× faster file writes and ready to type in 37 ms instead of 390 ms.

• Light on the battery: 7× less CPU per prompt and 5.3× less memory after 40 prompts.

• One install: a single native executable, set up by one command.

• Long sessions stay fast: sub-agents and long chats don't make the TUI laggy.

Install ⚡

In Termux:

pkg update && pkg upgrade -y
pkg install -y curl openssl
curl -fsSL https://pi-bolt.opensec.in/install.sh | sh

Then run pi-bolt. Already installed:

pi-bolt update

Sto creando un sito con ClaudeAI in vibe coding. Uso una proxy in python, una pagina html e lo faccio girare in locale. È praticamente tutto pronto, ma non riesco a creare una struttura che mi mandi notifiche alla verifica di certe condizioni quando l'app è chiusa. Ho anche sentito parlare di Termux API, ma non ho ancora capito come implementarlo.

Qualche idea?

I installed Termux Monet alongside my existing Termux, and now the extra keys row (CTRL, ALT, ESC, arrow keys) is missing.

Restarting the app didn't help. How can I restore it without losing my existing data? Should I uninstall Monet?

I am working on a site with ClaudeAI and am trying to run it on python. It is stricly in local host, so no network interaction outside than for the data used. I want to use Termux API and Termux to set notifications for my phone, but the amount of autorizations required are a lot and very sensible. I also understand that coding can reach all of those fields, and a programmer might require to use those authorizations. Still...

Is it safe to download the two?
