Well thats paid software. Nice to know it exits but I would like to see how far I can get without paying money for it. Hangover should offer the same functionality as this.

Read, follow instructions and you wouldn't have problems.

Has anyone managed to compile moonlight-qt on Ubuntu L4T ?

I tried several times, nothing seems to work. I read somewhere that some people managed to get it working...

Anyone have any instructions on how to get this darn thing to work ?

Hey everyone,

I created account here to post a bit and help get linux on switch better.
First up great work OP for bringing ubuntu to the switch really like it.

I figured I play around with it and try something with it. Playing windows games on the switch using ubuntu sounds fun. So I did some research on topic, since I am a Linux Gamer anyway.
Wine has an ARM-build availiable see here: (due to restrictions I cant post links here so just remove the space in the link and copy it into the adress bar); wiki. winehq. org/ARM64

The article above states that it seems really possible to run winx86 programms using emulation. So here is the next article: wiki. winehq. org/Emulation

I did some testing on the last method listed in the article above using hangover (can be found here: github. com / AndreRH/ hangover)

I nearly got it to compile on the switch (which takes some time) though I still run into some errors with mingw. So maybe someone here would like to help me get up and running and write a little guide on how get this up and running on the switch?

Every help is appreciated. Though don't get your hopes that high. since some games seem to work but the switch hardware will limit the possibilities quite hard. My dream would be to get some visual novels running on the switch.

I can't really help but I appreciate your efforts !

Did you fix the issue with this? https://github.com/AndreRH/hangover/issues/23

Also, most non-trivial programs do not work correctly on Hangover due to unthunked/unimplemented functions.

I've been trying pretty much since this came out and haven't been able to get qt to work, think some people have managed to get embedded to work but I haven't tried yet.

Joycons feel all right (and there's right click) by following the recommendation a couple of pages before even after reboot (ie once synced they're ok connected to the console forever).

The onboard keyboard is not accurate enough to touchtype but can be improved by setting preferences to single-touch, delay to max and motion threshold to 0 (can type faster without repppppeating keys)

plex web streaming via chronium works great with 720p transcoding (better than plex add-on in Kodi)

Does this take up a lot of space?

Deleted User · May 1, 2019

Damn nice! I'm gonna try some emulators on it. I need a bluetooth keyboard w/ trackpad first, do you think this will work for Ubuntu on Switch?

@bylaws can u help me?

i'm having some problems here.
burned the image to my sd card, loaded hekate and after select the "L4T" option in more configs, my screen goes black (switch still turned on) and after some seconds or a minute, it reboots to RCM again. Tried several times and just the time it takes to reboot changes. What i'm doing wrong?

I have the same problem. Let's team up, maybe also have a chat. I'm trying to resolve this issue but till now 2 SD and some trials didn't work at all.
I've tried a 128 GB SAMSUNG EVO PLUS and 64 GB SAMSUNG EVO PLUS SD cards.

Can a Hard Disk / HDD be used in the dock? Because if so, you are a GOD!

Moonlight embedded works well. Instructions here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutoria...t-embedded-on-l4t-ubuntu.537429/#post-8619150

@burt111, you say no arm64 builds, but what about running it via RetroArch?
