Droidcam /v4l2loopback device not foun (/dev/video[0-9]). Did it install correctly? If you had a kernel update, you may need to re-install.
Thank you! Your instructions helped me get the video to work. As for the sound though, the bottom of that github page: https://github.com/dev47apps/droidcam

The Linux client and the OBS plugin are indeed open source. My mistake!

Rebuilding mesa and failing hardware acceleration
Hardware acceleration is not upstream and does not have a stable kernel interface yet. You need to use the corresponding tag in our repo to the kernel you are running. The mapping isn't really maintained anywhere explicitly but you can look at the commit log of our PKGBUILDs repo to get an idea, since I keep them matched there.

Help with Linux Headers
I finally got them working. Here's what I did: sudo pacman -S linux-asahi-headers base-devel git clone https://github.com/AsahiLinux/PKGBUILDs.git cd PKGBUILDs/linux-asahi makepkg sudo cp -rf src/linux-asahi-6.2-11/build/edge/ /usr/lib/modules/6.2.0-asahi-11-1-edge-ARCH/build

How to build asahi kernel and external module
git clone https://github.com/AsahiLinux/PKGBUILDs.git cd PKGBUILDs/linux-asahi

Asahi Linux is mainly just the kernel, right? So why does Pacman not replace it with an Arch one?
Because it's a separate package (linux-asahi), that provides the linux package name, so it stands in for the standard kernel persistently. Only new versions of linux-asahi can update it automatically, you'd have to manually install another kernel package to switch it out. See the PKGBUILDs guide for more information on how this works.
- Is it possible to build the edge kernel from sources?
