CodeWeavers Launches CrossOver Preview For Linux ARM64

([WINE] 102 Minutes Ago CrossOver For Linux ARM64)


CodeWeavers announced this morning a new CrossOver Preview that includes Linux ARM64 support for the first time. This commercial software built atop Wine is now comfortable with the state of running Windows x86/x64 apps on Linux ARM64 and even the ability ro enjoy many Windows games on ARM64 Linux devices like the System76 [1]Thelio Astra .

CodeWeavers' CrossOver is now available in preview form for Linux ARM64 devices. This builds off all the upstream Wine ARM64 work the past several years. CodeWeavers engineers did a lot of testing of this port using the System76 Thelio Astra desktop with Ampere Altra processors and NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics.

Games like Cyberpunk 2077, Hades II, Path of Exile 2, and others are expected to be playable on Linux ARM64 hardware with this new CrossOver build for i386 and x86-64 emulation on AArch64.

The Modelski Chain Rule:
(1) Look intently at the problem for several minutes. Scratch your
head at 20-30 second intervals. Try solving the problem on your
Hewlett-Packard.
(2) Failing this, look around at the class. Select a particularly
bright-looking individual.
(3) Procure a large chain.
(4) Walk over to the selected student and threaten to beat him severely
with the chain unless he gives you the answer to the problem.
Generally, he will. It may also be a good idea to give him a sound
thrashing anyway, just to show you mean business.
