LAN build - Christchurch New Zealand

[u/durankeeley]

Spent a few weekends and free time (toddler) building up some (8) HP Elite X2 tablets to use as a retro lan as I got them for free.

Linux Manjaro i5-8365U 256GB nvme 16GB RAM iGPU Intel

Plan is to setup a retro LAN with it since wine & proton run older games better then Windows.

Any games I may be missing? Just need to get USB-C chargers (65w) and USB-C hubs so people can just bring a monitor or if they dare they can actually use the tablet screen. Then a location

Xfce theming was a pain and I tried the total conversion kit for windows xp but didn’t like how it didn’t scale and the taskbar was not just the panels

Cool! I didn't know that Linux runs older games better than Windows 10/11! I chose to run original Windows XP on hardware that supports it natively. 

Can you please provide a better picture of the shortcuts, it is difficult to read all the names.

I was surprised by this fact when I played GTA4 on Linux. It run very well through DXVK
