crouton VS chromebrew

It's a little more than that, they then added subpixel and momentum scrolling support to Chrome that bypasses X11 and does something custom [1]. Integration problems like this one that require a bunch of coordination are harder to do in open source land.

I'm guessing GP means natively, not in a VM. I've been super grateful for the VM-based method, but I still prefer the native experience like that provided by Crouton[1]. With Crouton being "maintenance-only" now I share GP's hope that a similar thing will be possible and easy.

One way to install Crouton

Go to the github of crouton they have instructions there https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton

At any rate, you can try Breath, Crouton, Manjaro... those are three of the distros people have found success with. It all boils down to the specific hardware involved... which we know nothing about since you kept that to yourself.

Post in r/crouton and refer to https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton if you haven't already. However, I think it's fair to say that Crouton is now broken to the point of being effectively dead.

Hello, I have a TP Link Archer T2U Plus adapter with RTL8821AU and I would like to use it on my PC, could you help me? PD: I have tried to install the Linux subsystem but I get an error, so I tried something from this post although I don't know how to use it https://github.com/skycocker/chromebrew

I see, to give you a point of view i should mention that Chrome OS itself is a Linux, to test what i mean you can press ctrl+alt+t and crosh terminal window will open(it is different than Linux development environment), now type "uname -a" and you'll see which kernel version it is, and it is actually capable of running regular GNU/Linux applications as expected(*See chromebrew for real world example). Why did they chose virtual machine approach for running regular GNU/Linux applications is for babysitting reasons, and embracing web apps as it is made as thin client rather than full blown OS.

Or you could install Chromebrew and use sommelier

As a Chromebrew dev... lololol. :)

2- The terminal you see when you activate Linux support is not the terminal of Chrome OS itself but the terminal of virtual machine called Crostini.Although Chrome OS itself is capable of running containers running on top of same kernel(Crouton for real world example) or running GNU/Linux apps even without needing Crostini virtual machine(Flatpak support on the Cloudready and Chromebrew Package Manager directly running on top of Chrome OS for the real world example), see the page below for understanding why they chose this approach(TL; DR Babysitting reasons for someone who uses sudo for everything):

Chrome OS itself is pretty much capable of running regular GNU/Linux programs without needing a virtual machine like Crostini, there is even a package manager for it. However like i said Google chooses only using web apps route, Crostini is meant to be only for development purposes and pretty much limited like usb or internal hardware access(like camera) and even the screen sharing itself.
