The recent addition of SoC detection is locale-dependent, because lscpu output is localized. It'll likely break on most non-English systems. This patch fixes the detection on non-English systems.

sorry, was boxtron and luxtorpeda

@simona: Why would this conflict with steam?

This patch uses box64 compile flags for RK3588/RK3588S and RK3399, This might not be the best way to do this, but it shouldn't break anything if not using these SOCs, or if it fails to detect them. It should also work for other SOCs by just adding more if statements for each SOC. This has only been tested on RK3588S with BreadOS on the Khadas Edge2

The following patch allows it to build on ppc64le. I used a 4k kernel and was able to play "AndYetItMoves", though it was quit slow.

@PseudoSpock: Thanks for the notification. I'm AFK right now. Will update in a few days.

Got 0.3.0 to build. Just tested it with Zoom, which still works.

Version 0.3.0 was just released.

For Asahi Linux users on M1, you'll need to go to PKGBUILD and replace -DARM_DYNAREC=ON with -DM1=1 under the if [[ $CARCH == "aarch64" ]]; then section, or else you'll get errors running programs.
