Probably the only thing I wouldn’t change in the project after all these years!

Unfortunately Docker containers and terminal coding is a bit over my head.
That’s absolutely understandable, getting comfortable with the terminal is definitely the first step to be able to shove that PC in a closet. 😉
Ideally, in the meantime I’ll have made all this stack even easier to run!
We support podman, you just have to enable the Podman System Service so that Wolf can use that socket to spin up and down additional containers.
I really should add a section in the quickstart guide…
Shameless plug: I’m the main developer of Games on Whales.
I’ve built Wolf exactly because of those shortcomings of other solutions: it runs fully headless, spins up virtual Wayland desktops that matches the resolution/FPS that’s requested from the clients and everything runs in Docker so it doesn’t pollute your host OS (just your HDD).
I’m currently working on a massive performance improvement in this PR if you’d like to try it, I’d suggest to pick that tag.
abeltramo@lemmy.worldto Caffè Italia@feddit.it•[Inglese] Domanda sull'acquisizione della nazionalità3·3 months agoLa procedura per il riconoscimento si sviluppa nei passaggi di seguito indicati:
accertare che la discendenza abbia inizio da un avo italiano (non ci sono limiti di generazioni); accertare che l’avo cittadino italiano abbia mantenuto la cittadinanza sino alla nascita del discendente. La mancata naturalizzazione o la data di un’eventuale naturalizzazione dell’avo deve essere comprovata mediante attestazione rilasciata dalla competente Autorità straniera; comprovare la discendenza dall’avo italiano mediante gli atti di stato civile di nascita e di matrimonio; atti che devono essere in regola con la legalizzazione, se richiesta, e muniti di traduzione ufficiale.
The main point here is that you could get citizenship from your great-grandfather only if he was still Italian when you were born IIUC.
Would that be still the case for you? Would any of the family members in between be Italian by any chance?

abeltramo@lemmy.worldOPto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Games on Whales - Stream multiple desktops and games from a single hostEnglish2·1 year agoOthers have asked for it and I guess some of it might even work given that WSL2 has GPU support. I’ll keep this issue updated as I get some progress on this front!
abeltramo@lemmy.worldOPto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Games on Whales - Stream multiple desktops and games from a single hostEnglish1·1 year agoMight be worth to open up an issue on Github or a thread on Discord. I haven’t tested
pipewiresrc
but there’s probably some clue in the Wolf logs. Besides, have you mounted the host XDG_RUNTIME_DIR, passed the right env variables and so on?For streaming the host desktop Sunshine might be a better fit btw…
abeltramo@lemmy.worldOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•Games on Whales - Stream multiple desktops and games from a single host1·1 year agoThanks for the kind works! It’s really appreciated
abeltramo@lemmy.worldOPto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Games on Whales - Stream multiple desktops and games from a single hostEnglish1·1 year agoIs each “game entry” in moonlight a shared instance?
Quite the opposite, at the moment each Moonlight client will have a completely isolated session and they can play different games. This obviously defeats co-op which is something that I’d like to work on by adding proper user management and a remote UI in the next release.
How would I go about making a generic linux desktop from a given Linux distro?
In our latest images we have default support for Sway, you could easily expand that base Dockeer image with all the apps you need or make a different image with the DE that you’d like to use. The project is very open ended and only a few base components are needed in order for any image to be streamed to a remote client.
abeltramo@lemmy.worldOPto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Games on Whales - Stream multiple desktops and games from a single hostEnglish4·1 year agoYep, this is one of the main reasons why I started this project in the first place: I wanted to stream games from the same VM where Jellyfin is running.
abeltramo@lemmy.worldOPto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Games on Whales - Stream multiple desktops and games from a single hostEnglish5·1 year agoYep that’s perfectly possible, the sessions that will run under Wolf will be completely isolated from the host. Besides, that’s how I run it on my desktop dev machine!
abeltramo@lemmy.worldOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•Games on Whales - Stream multiple desktops and games from a single host3·1 year agoThanks mate! It has been a long road but we’ve finally got something that seems to work across a lot of different HWs, so it was time to pin it down into a release.
abeltramo@lemmy.worldOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•Games on Whales - Stream multiple desktops and games from a single host3·1 year agoYeah we definitely overlap a little with Kasm, our main focus is gaming with out of the box support for Steam, Proton and proper joypad with Rumble, Gyro and Acceleration (a first in Linux!).
Plus, as you said, we are 100% open source and community based, there’s no company behind us and no monetization whatsoever. 😉
abeltramo@lemmy.worldOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•Games on Whales - Stream multiple desktops and games from a single host4·1 year agoI’m glad you like it! Have fun!
abeltramo@lemmy.worldOPto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Games on Whales - Stream multiple desktops and games from a single hostEnglish4·1 year agoNo worries! Let me know how it goes, any feedback is highly appreciated!
abeltramo@lemmy.worldOPto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Games on Whales - Stream multiple desktops and games from a single hostEnglish5·1 year agoSounds like this is exactly what this is capable of: you run Wolf on one beefy machine, and then you connect to it from multiple clients to play games or run a full desktop remotely!
abeltramo@lemmy.worldOPto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Games on Whales - Stream multiple desktops and games from a single host4·1 year agoIt’s fairly simple actually, the basic idea is to create multiple desktops from a single host; fully HW accelerated and isolated from each other. So for example I could stream a game to my couch TV whilst someone else is playing a different game on the very same computer.
Personally I use this on my homelab: the same machine that has got Jellyfin (and other containers) installed can share the GPU with Wolf so that I can both transcode with HW acceleration when needed and play a game or open up a remote desktop all from one single machine.
I just finished Lies of P including the DLC, runs beautifully on the Steam Deck and it’s such a banger!
