About Twister OS
A note from our founder

-
-

- Twister OS is the successor of Raspbian 95, Raspbian XP, Raspbian X, Raspbian X Nighthawk - and iRaspbian (The Last two being made by Grayduck) It was a personal project done by me, Salvador. - With the idea that the Raspian Pixel Desktop wasn't enough, I created Raspbian 95/XP. In terms of - productivity, XFCE was a much better desktop and adding some emulator would make make both worlds - (gaming and desktop) merged as one build. Twister OS is built on the official Raspbian Pi OS with - themes designed to appear like operating systems they are themed after, but they are no operating - systems by themselves. With that said, Software updates for Twister OS relies upon the Raspberry Pi - Foundation while internal changes to themes and included software are updated by us via patches. -

-

- The second and maybe most important part weren't the themes themselves (That Grayduck a friend I made - through this process and now copropietary of Pi Labs Youtube channel demonstrating all his assets doing - that part much better than I), but was Box86. Box86 is an emulator developed by ptitSeb that vanishes the - borders between ARM Linux and x86 Linux, being able to automatically execute (with some kind of success) - x86 Linux binaries and Wine x86 without any complex process like we suffer on other slow and painful - implimentations, like Exagear (not open sourced and abandoned) or Qemu with chroots and VM's. -

-

- Windows on ARM Operating System is another closed source non Linux way of running x86 software on - the Raspberry Pi 4. While it has a fast dynarec, it does everything through software and from my perspective - that's not a good approach, like it wasn't on Exagear. There is another thing, even with Microsoft getting - involved and making a driver for it, it would be limited to just the Raspberry Pi 4. Box86 and Linux can run - anywhere, especially with open source MESA drivers, it's not limited to just the Raspberry Pi 4. Box86 can run - on the Odroid N2, C4, any RK3399 and many other single board computers. -

-

- With the idea of being able to execute x86 software with a fast dynarec plus GPU acceleration opens the - future of cheap ARM linux handhelds or laptops that would be able to run x86 Linux and Windows software (with - Box86 and Wine x86). I would like to thank ptitSeb for his continuing development of Box86 and all the MESA - driver developers to keep working on GPU's that are really constrained on capabilities and giving them features that - weren't meant for them, especially on Panfrost.

Where is Play on Linux?

+

playonlinux was removed due to too many complaints that not a lot was working with it. You can reinstall with sudo apt install playonlinux && sudo apt remove wine You need to remove wine because playonlinux will install the arm version which will conflict with x86 version of wine.

+ +

Where can I download wine?

+

Download Wine

+

To use, extract wine.tgz and run the wine binary from wine/bin

+

For example, if extracted to home directory you would run this in terminal

+ ~/wine/bin/wine path/to/your/game.exe -

- Some icons on my panel/taskbar are missing! -

-

Open terminal and enter ./.panel-restart

-

This will refresh your panel/taskbar and should show missing items again. If this does not help then please request further help on discord.

- -

- Why does retropie ask me to log in? -

-

You must have disabled auto-login - If that's the case, you'll just need to hit "enter" when taken to the console prompt. It'll tell you "invalid login" or something to that effect - Then, when prompted, enter "pi" as the username, and "raspberry" as the password (or whatever you've changed the pi account password to) - Press Ctrl+Alt+F7 to return to the desktop, and then you'll be able to launch RetroPie by just double-clicking on the icon
