Podroid runs a real Alpine Linux VM

What's new in 1.2:

- pKVM backend on Pixel 8/9/10 (auto-detected, opt-in via two `pm grant`s, works with Shizuku if you don't have a PC). VM boots in seconds.

- Live LAN port forwarding — `ssh root@<phone-ip> -p 9922` from any laptop on the same WiFi, no VM restart on rule add/remove

- Terminal auto-resize for TUI apps (btop, vim, htop)

- Full UI restyle, snappier keystrokes, audio + clipboard fixes

- In-app X11 viewer for desktop apps

Did Ubuntu Touch add high refresh rate support?

I have nothing phone 1 and I remember it being stuck to 60hz a few months ago, after that I have been running PostmarketOS for some time which was set to 120hz. Today it broke so I temporarily switched to Ubuntu Touch, which is somehow running at 120hz as well now.

Maybe it just somehow kept the settings from PostmarketOS in hardware? I guess it could be a workaround if someone wants to try smooth UT.

I cannot find anything about UT adding high refresh rates...
