GameNative-x64 on the Acer Googlebook

Here is a video of what all I have working on the Acer Googlebook so far with my GameNative-x64 fork.
Changes made for the Googlebook (and others):

32bit emulation added for kernels that don't include support
Linux Session & Apps are also now working
Rendering artifacts on newer Intel chipsets resolved.
Sidebar overlay added to Linux App/Session windows (Back or Shift+Esc)
Per-App scaling support for Linux apps

(For best performance, you will still want to switch to DRI3 presentation in settings)

Updates are released in the GameNative-x64 repo: https://github.com/Bliss-Bass/GameNative-x64

MindTheGapps (A16) Updates

Optional: fingerprint config (before flashing)

To optionally set a Play-style build fingerprint, create a config file on the device before you flash.

File name

Use either:

mtg-config.txt
MindTheGapps.prop

Where to put it

The installer checks these locations in order (first match wins):

Internal storage root (`/sdcard/`)
Documents (`/sdcard/Documents/`)
Download / Downloads (`/sdcard/Download/` or `/sdcard/Downloads/`)
The same folder as the zip you are flashing

On many devices, saving from a text editor into Documents or Downloads is easiest.

Example config

# fingerprint: none | fugu | hatch | cheets | tangorpro
fingerprint=tangorpro

# props_mode: fingerprint | full
props_mode=fingerprint

Optional fingerprint override (flashable zip)

Place a config file on the device before flashing to optionally spoof ro.build.fingerprint (useful for Play certification style setups).

Checked in order (first found wins):

XR Launcher 0.1.34

Mon, 21 Sep 2026 00:34:53 +0000

Spatial workspace launcher for Android XR glasses, tablets, and large-screen hosts — with the phone as a companion touchpad.

Tag: v0.1.34 · versionCode: 35 · minSdk: 34

This build lands companion multitouch, tray/QS polish, Recents world-lock, wallpaper/HDRI options, and clearer host look modes on tablet.

Highlights:

Companion touchpad
Apps icon toggles All Apps on glasses (replaces the wide Close All Apps button)
2-finger drag scrolls under the glasses cursor; pinch zooms the Home Space sphere
3-finger drag pans look; 2-finger tap right-clicks
Toolbar icons use high-contrast tints on the dark chrome
Tray / notifications / QS
Deduped quick-settings chrome; brightness slider no longer trapped by a parent clickable
Mouse-look can scrub brightness and a notification scroll handle
Per-notification X dismiss hits for FPS / companion pointer
