Yes, the #1 use of entware on *ELEC distros is installing piracy tools. We work closely with Team Kodi and take a similarly firm stance on that kind of thing. It's our distro and our choice. If you disagree .. feel free to fork our codebase and run a distro. CE isn't the first fork of our codebase and won't be the last. Forks are an essential part of our ecosystem. We like forks

If you want entware on LE you need to self-build an image with /opt added. Have a look at packages/sysutils/systemd/tmpfiles.d/z_01_openelec.conf for some prior art on adding directories.

Thanks for the reply.

Since I'm "just a user" It feels a bit overkill to fork just to add the /opt to the / . There is a much easier way to add it once in a while.

I understand the "our distro and our choice". Just in this case, it just creates a little obstacle, not really preventing piracy tools on LE.

Anyway, back to the original topic, unfortunately I was wrong to think that it is possible to install qemu-ga. This package is in the openwrt repos and not really compatible with entware it will take some work to install all the dependencies

As a side note, general installation runs mostly fine in proxmox with GPU passthrough.

We don't support install in/on/via proxmox so there's probably something missing

If only someone would just allow entware in a convenient way we would simply install qemu-ga package. Along with drivers

But LibreELEC devs say: "We are open source ... But we will tell you what and how to do because we think some of you will use entware to install torrent client"

No wonder CoreELEC forked.

IIRC long-press isn't supported with CEC remotes (aka your TV remote) in kodi.

so long,

I have Odroid HC-4 with CoreELEC and long press on TV remote OK works just fine to bring up the context menu. So maybe not directly by Kodi, but it is supported somehow.

Same goes for HDR10+, but I don't really care about it.

Long press to bring up context menu is the only thing I still can not figure out since the switch to LibreELEC.

Any idea how they did it?
