I get the feeling that it would be more feasible to build a separate kernel at this point. Its a lot of work, but adding another option to the comparatively small array of kernel options that we have might actually be a good idea -and in doing so, it word demonstrate r4l’s willingness to maintain the project long-term. There’s no need for this pissy behaviour, and there’s no need to take the drama to social media.

I have an SFF PC currently running Mint, with Bello and steam as well as xemu and a few other goodies. The flexibility is great, if something is a bit borked I can usually just play it in VLC, and the compute allows me to run pretty much any emulator besides Xenia or that PS3 one. Once I plug a GPU into it, those should be fine too. Not bad for a cheap i5 system.

Forewarning, wine appears to be a bit broken on Mint at the moment. I was recently experimenting with it in a VM, and I could not seem to get it installed properly - even after adding the winehq repo. Debian, by contrast, just works. I still use winamp for my music library, and play a few games that are windows based.
