Apple M1 Docker not working so hot

$ wine notepad

What other information can I provide? I'm running ./docker-wine --rdp from

@scottyhardy any suggestions?

Unfortunately it doesn't look like I can build for ARM64 due to the reliance on i386 arch for wine. If you're running with Rosetta you can apparently run Intel-based docker containers with a hefty performance hit due to emulation. There may be other problems with getting X11 working on macOS with M1 chipsets but I can't test that as I only have an Intel Mac.

The build has been broken for a while which may also be related to the error you received when using --rdp. It might be worth testing again as it's working now, but performance probably won't be great.

Doing some further reading, it is possible to install or build an ARM64 based version of wine, but you’re limited to 64bit applications that have been compiled for ARM which only exists for some newer Win10 apps. If there’s enough interest I’ll do ARM builds but otherwise I think the x86 build with emulation will be more useful for most users.

[brandonros]

how much effort is that on your end? @scottyhardy

[scottyhardy]

@brandonros fortunately not too much effort.

Turns out I needed to build from source as I couldn't find the binaries anywhere. I've just added a pull request and waiting for the build to complete. Once successful, it'll push the new image to scottyhardy/docker-wine:arm64. You will also be able to run it with just ./docker-wine --arm64 which essentially just uses the new image tag and adds --platform=linux/arm64 to the docker run command. The image also contains the RDP server and I've had both X11 and RDP modes working on my Mac when testing (mine's an Intel Macbook Pro but it seems to run ARM via emulation with decent performance).

I haven't included the gecko/mono install files or winetricks in the arm64 build as I'm pretty sure I'll need to build them from source as well but I haven't looked into it. I've at least performed the usual wine notepad test which works but I haven't tried anything else.

let me know when the tag is pushed + published + ready to test please, thank you

i see you just merged

[scottyhardy]

@brandonros it’s ready to go now. Let me know if you hit any problems.

[brandonros]

Which tag example @scottyhardy ?

https://hub.docker.com/r/scottyhardy/docker-wine/tags

You might want to also get GitHub release/tags up to par/matching if it isn't too much effort for you: https://github.com/scottyhardy/docker-wine/releases

a bit confusing that they are out of sync

shall I try latest, stable-6.0.2 or devel-7.0-rc1-arm64?

[brandonros]

docker run -it   --rm   --hostname="$(hostname)"   --env="RDP_SERVER=yes"   --publish="3389:3389/tcp"   --platform=linux/arm64   scottyhardy/docker-wine:devel-7.0-rc1-arm64 /bin/bash

Works flawlessly. Thank you.
