Wine On Android Starts Allowing Windows Binaries On Android/ARM
"Wine on Android is happening slowly but surely ... Wine is now in a state to be able to run your favorite Windows (x86) game on your Android-powered ARM device, assuming the game is Windows Solitaire. Wine has been making progress on Android to allow simple applications to run on Wine, but they have run into some challenges, as noted in the annual talk at FOSDEM." -- source: http://mobile.slashdot.org/story/14/02/10/0251201 Cheers, Peter -- Peter Reutemann, Dept. of Computer Science, University of Waikato, NZ http://www.cms.waikato.ac.nz/~fracpete/ Ph. +64 (7) 858-5174

So if it's running x86 code on an arm processor does that mean "Wine Is Not an Emulator" Is Now an Emulator? On 11 February 2014 09:31, Andrew Crosby <electrogeek(a)gmail.com> wrote:
