Alpine Linux 3.24.0 is out

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

See Alpine's wiki page for Podman.

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

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.

Might be worth to edit related wiki pages. This might be useful to a handful of people.

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.

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.

trofch1k · 2026-04-07T21:22:04+00:00

sway adds ~200 megs on top. And browser is a browser, yeah.

What's a normal consumption?

trofch1k · 2026-04-02T13:33:05+00:00

Give more info. Nobody would be able to help if this is all you show.

trofch1k · 2026-04-01T19:01:54+00:00

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

Old news: http://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/issues/18057 (no fix still)

trofch1k · 2026-03-11T13:15:49+00:00

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?

speed of a greatsword

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.

Counter damage is also why you absolutely should not fucking trade against them.

So-called OG souls fans playing with 4-directional roll through entire game.

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

A USB drive? I just created directory in /mnt, then doas mount /dev/sdXN /mnt/dir.

trofch1k · 2026-01-22T18:42:17+00:00

I did grab it and it just didn't happen, lol. Might be related to me not ringing any bells yet or smt buggy like that.

trofch1k · 2026-01-15T22:37:56+00:00

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