Yeah, I am working to make the updates and adding the solution by making 
Shell script to manage the DKMS, since KMP approach aren't effective 
anymore. If you have idea, you can help me to tell which should I did 
for improving the packages before pulling into. I hope these solution 
will let them pull it without touching the kernel and utilise DKMS.

I was doing the big update yesterday when I am in hospital for control 
at psychiatry and I am using hospital's public internet for working the 
updates. Just let me know when everything works at the upcoming updates 
(always refresh the repo during the updates).

That's it from me.

Regards

Jim

Also, now I am gonna upload the SRPMs (Source of RPMs) into my own repo 
at https://codeberg.org/jimed-rand/waydroid-opensuse-sources soon. So, 
feel free to contribute if you want to improve.

Hi Jim,

I have been having a lot of instability from binder_linux, it crashes 
(as seen in dmesg), it causes audio to crackle in android from time to 
time and also straight-up system lockups. So I still think it is worth 
asking the kernel team for including the upstream binder module. :/

Small status update, I remade my kernel build on obs with binderfs in the 
kernel and all my problems with crashing and performance have gone away.

Hello Sebastian

Sorry if I didn't reply the messages that you was sent. Since the binder 
is facing security issues on openSUSE, I guess it won't work to 
integrate for now. Look at openSUSE Bugzilla and find the "binder" for 
more details. Also, I guess you're inspired from tiwai's kernel repo to 
made it working. Well, instead following my home sub-repo for Waydroid, 
you can follow the Emulators:Waydroid 
(https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/Emulators:Waydroid) from now 
on. But before that, disable my repo and enable the repo below.

Tumbleweed : sudo zypper ar -f 
https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Emulators:/Waydroid/openSUSE_Factory/Emulators:Waydroid.repo

Slowroll : sudo zypper ar -f 
https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Emulators:/Waydroid/openSUSE_Slowroll/Emulators:Waydroid.repo

Leap 16.0 : sudo zypper ar -f 
https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Emulators:/Waydroid/16.0/Emulators:Waydroid.repo

I hope it works for you.

Jim
