AROS-Distribution: Aeros for Raspberry Pi 2 Premium with ExaGear
Pascal Papara's Linux-hosted AROS-distribution Aeros now exclusively is available for the Raspberry Pi 2 as premium version (screenshot), which includes the lx-command for launching Linux-programms out of AROS as well as the commercial programm ExaGear.
Using this emulator it is possible to execute x86-applications on the ARM-processor of the Raspberry. Therefore programms like Skype (Linux/x86) and Wine (Linux/x86) as well as, based on them, Amiga emulators WinUAE (Windows/x86) and WinFellow (Windows/x86) can be used with this distribution (Video: WinFellow).
Some of the x86-programms only runs with limitations: For instance Skype has not a sound output because the required soundserver PulseAudio was left out due to problems with other apllications. Without ExaGear and the programms which use it, the distribution can be also used on a Raspberry Pi 1.
