Does this work with Ubuntu?

[WhyIsntTouhouBuntuRealYet]

Basically, I want to know if I can use this with Wine on Ubuntu for RPI 400 for the lulz. Is this possible?

I guess Ubuntu on PI is 64bits, so you'll need armhf multiarch installation.

Once you have 32bits , than yes, no problem.

Ubuntu 20.10:

cd box86

mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DRK3399=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo; make -j4
sudo make install
sudo systemctl restart systemd-binfmt

I'm not sure about wine, but try this, it should work:

cd $HOME
sudo apt install cabextract libncurses5:armhf -y
wget https://twisteros.com/wine.tgz -O ~/wine.tgz
tar zxf ~/wine.tgz
rm ~/wine.tgz
sudo ln -s ~/wine/bin/winecfg /usr/local/bin/winecfg
sudo ln -s ~/wine/bin/wineserver /usr/local/bin/wineserver
sudo ln -s ~/wine/bin/wineboot /usr/local/bin/wineboot
echo "#!/bin/bash
setarch linux32 -L $HOME/wine/bin/wine"' "$@"' | sudo tee /usr/local/bin/wine >/dev/null
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/wine /usr/local/bin/wineboot /usr/local/bin/wineserver /usr/local/bin/winecfg
sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Winetricks/winetricks/master/src/winetricks -O /usr/local/bin/winetricks
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/winetricks

run wine wineboot to create a new wine prefix.
run

sudo sed -i 's|echo "\${arg%%=\*}"=\\""${arg### \*=}"\\"|echo \${arg%%=\*}=\\"\${arg### \*=}\\"|g' /usr/local/bin/winetricks

if you get adobeair warning when running winetricks.

Thanks. I'll let you know if it works.

[WhyIsntTouhouBuntuRealYet]

It works. I had to install wine normally, as well as other things. Only issue is that the sound cuts out when I play a game like Touhou, but other than that, it plays fine.

For a possibly easier way to install wine+box86, you could try Pi-Apps.

Of course, this will have to be done in armhf.

me and Botspot are working on getting box86 on arm64 to pi-apps (using multiarch), so that means wine for arm64 might be added to pi-apps!
