I am trying to get Waydroid running. This is the log I get after running waydroid -v session start

and then nothing. Same with waydroid show-full-ui
waydroid status
Session: RUNNING
Container: RUNNING
Vendor type: MAINLINE
IP address: UNKNOWN
Session user: Computer2(1001)
Wayland display: wayland-0
I am stumped; there is no error in the log so I don’t know what to look for. I followed the steps in https://forums.opensuse.org/t/tumblewed-waydroid-install/167927/1,
https://codeberg.org/cream/waydroid-openSUSE-setup
as well as the Archwiki page and the Waydroid docs.
On the other hand waydroid app list gives this output:
(026342) [15:55:10] Waiting for binder Service Manager…
(026342) [15:56:10] Service Manager never appeared
(026342) [15:56:10] Failed to access IPlatform service
I did manage to launch waydroid on leap 15.5, but I could not get it to rotate properly (so I have proof it is possible on my hardware). I migrated to Tumbleweed in the hopes of doing better since TW has more waydroid associated repos, but no luck so far.
Any advice or recommendations would be much appreciated.
