User:Jchdel

My current home/lab setup is

• An Alpine router x86_64 running https://github.com/jchdel/select-fastest-gateway connected to two or three different uplinks
• a switch
• a R-Pi 4 (used as usual desktop) also in 64 bits
• a tower (16 cores x86_64, 128GB RAM) running Alpine, openVSwitch and qemu-kvm
• dual 43" 4K (DP to desktop, HDMI to R-Pi 4)

I plan to run a Xorg desktop headless in some KVM and remotely connect to it from the R-Pi as X station... And to drive other dev and build boxes as KVM.

What about https://github.com/e1z0/Framebuffer-browser on Alpine? I plan to give a try and maybe package it...

# Only packages present in the local boot media will be available for 
# booted boxes.
