Is there a good writeup / overview on how cameras on mainline #mobilelinux work and where you can tweak things?

I'm asking because the back camera on my #pixel3a flashes and the picture sometimes freezes and I would like to look into fixing this. I just have no Idea how cameras work on linux and I'm unsure where to start.

Well... new instance, new introduction.

Hi, I'm hexaheximal. I'm a software developer by day... and... uhh... also by night.

I use desktop #Linux as well as #MobileLinux (more specifically #PostMarketOS) quite extensively, and enjoy doing so.

Occasionally I try making things other than software projects as well, but not as frequently. I also have a blog at hexaheximal.com/blog, although I don't use it often.

So yesterday I saw a @postmarketOS toot about their web flasher for Android devices, and I thought - how hard would it be to make one for L5? Turns out - not hard at all. Here it is booting Jumpdrive.

Some caveats:
- requires permission setting on Linux 😔 I may work out-of-box on other platforms though
- it's sloooow, but there's hope: github.com/WebAssembly/design/
- asks 5 times to allow access to the device. Could go down to 3, but no less than that.

Back to #Wayland and input methods.

What's your favorite input method?

Cause for me it was the one on old #Nokia phones. I could type with my hands in my pockets! Handy in winter.

Tested with #cosmic and #GTK .

This is just the beginning. Actually useful stuff is coming in the future. #Mobile keyboards, #Chinese input is what it's for:
