RetroArch is a free and open-source, cross-platform frontend for emulators, game engines, video games, media players and other applications. It is the reference implementation of the libretro API, [2] [3] designed to be fast, lightweight, portable and without dependencies. [4]
Lakka is a community-driven lightweight retro gaming Linux distribution based on LibreELEC. It uses the RetroArch user interface. Lakka is especially suited for older hardware and for low-end single-board computers, such as Raspberry Pi. [1] [2] [3]
This permission must be set for executable programs, in order to allow the operating system to run them.

Modern Linux distributions include a /sys directory as a virtual filesystem (sysfs, comparable to /proc, which is a procfs), which stores and allows modification of the devices connected to the system, [20] whereas many traditional Unix-like operating systems use /sys as a symbolic link to the kernel source tree.
The development of DOSBox began around the launch of Windows 2000—a Windows NT system [11] —when its creators, [12] Dutch programmers Peter Veenstra and Sjoerd van der Berg, discovered that the operating system had dropped much of its support for DOS software. The two knew of solutions at the time, but they could not run the applications in ...
