Very cool.

> libhybris allows glibc Linux programs to load the standard Android graphics drivers

I don't quite follow why you need that? This runs on a real full Android, so surely drivers already work?

The graphics drivers on Android are compiled with Bionic where as most Linux distributions are compiled with glibc. You can't really mix and match them.

Desktop linux apps still need to link to the system graphics driver to get hardware acceleration.
