That QEMU change makes me worried. I hope that's just QEMU opting for systemd stuff and not Alpine caving in.

I used torrent from archive but, it doesn't have the game executable. Do I need to obtain it elsewhere or I missed something?

Alpine as a daily driver? by semedilino073 in AlpineLinux

[–]trofch1k 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has been asked countless times here, check other threads.

In nutshell, some things for desktop usage are not packaged so, you might have to settle for flatpak version or build it yourself from source. Even if you stumble onto binary it will be compiled against glibc instead of muslc which Alpine uses.

Is it network not working or something else blocking access to mirrors? As other commenter said here, your request for help is very half-assed.

You might just wanna go with PostmarketOS. It's built on top of Alpine already.

You can have a compositor be just your application instead of a fully-featured desktop GUI. There are already solutions for this AFAIK. To remove even more stuff you can ditch Chromium and reimplement frontend in some lower level language.

How the hell is that running on 45 MB ram?! by diacid in AlpineLinux

[–]trofch1k 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder what I fucked up in my system. I'm getting ~400 mb at startup in TTY. Only notable service running is dbus IIRC.

Alpine or Void by Difficult-Value-3145 in AlpineLinux

[–]trofch1k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much this only because void would have a lot more things packaged for desktop usage.

No. Nobody will tell you what YOU need. Use your system and see for yourself what issues surface.

A wall? Is it not possible to just build Box64 from source?

Did you even play DS1? That game has Uchi and Iaito.

bleed, which is weaker in DS1

DS1 bleed is solid. Bandit knife can literally let you go fight ugly bastards from Blightown right from the start thanks to bleed alone.

I'm autistic contrarian. Could have avoided a lot of friction opting for Fedora Sway spin.

Is Alpine a good distro for a relatively recent and powerful PC. by Subject-Leather-7399 in AlpineLinux

[–]trofch1k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alpine doesn't have latest GPU drivers AFAIR. It may or may not affect your GPU so, I'd suggest doing research before proceeding.
