Remember the game Postal? It's available for free (GOG and Steam), and it is possible to build from source for other architectures. I had to make some small changes to makefile, to make it build on more modern ARM Linux systems.

Testing Fedora 44 on the Raspberry Pi 5. It is possible to boot the mainline image, but I didn't have audio. So I fell back to the dedicated Fedora 44 image for the Raspberry Pi.

Playing The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall Unity on ARM with Fex-Emu. It's recommended to have a good OpenGL driver. I wasn't able to get it working on a Rockchip RK3588, but it is working with the Qualcomm Snapdragon Dragonwing QCS6490.

YARKtop is a nice system monitor for Rockchip SoCs. I had an issue with monitoring GPU utilisation, but GPU clock frequency works. It's also better to work with the vendor kernel for NPU monitoring.
