In general: I'm surprised some speak of running X on android. I've no intention to do that/don't understand how that could work.
But besides that, it's working with some exceptions. I was able to install and run all versions of gcc, of course also able to install clang, but the latter is segfaulting. Also perl6-m which I compiled is segfaulting if started with interactive REPL.
That's somewhat surprising, because I've heard a) gcc isn't supporting android, but clang is and b) executables on android should be compiled with -pie. And suprinsingly, the debian clang seems to be like that, but gcc not. I've no clue what's the matter there and so far didn't find the time to ask.
Also I didn't find time to install some snapshots and try to proot into, namly from alpine linux and gentoo.
And it's really really a tremendous waste if the Max2 cannot be rooted, if only it is to use sshfs to mount some remote storage. Booxstor, please please please find some way to provide us with a rooted image.
But first check if termux doesn't provide the ablilities you need, clang is there, ssh and git.
