minus-square@boredsquirrel@slrpnk.netlinkfedilink8•2 months agoI guess it is more performant. https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/131147
minus-square@M500@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglish4•2 months agoLet me know if I don’t know enough about what you are talking about, but I think your saying to use qemu to o run windows. This is about running x86 code on arm processors, like what Apple does with Rosetta.
minus-square@Penta@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink13•2 months agoQemu can emulate one architecture on another. And qemu-user can be used to run a single userspace-program on a different architecture.
minus-square@bruce965@lemmy.mllinkfedilink3•edit-22 months agoI might be very mistaken, but I don’t think QEMU can link mixed-architecture dependencies. Box86 can run an x86 game on ARM and link ARM-native shared objects for OpenGL, thus skipping emulation of some hotpath code.

This is what I was refering to.
