    I don’t think this is likely to be gaming related.
    That’s a 15 year old efficiency trimmed 32bit ARMv7-A CPU.

      Qualcomm is provider for the next coming Steam Frame, which is an ARM platform planned to run X86 videogames through Valve’s Fex. Their active interest in kernel Linux may be driven more by Android and broad challenge against Intel/AMD in the desktop/laptop industry, but ARM Linux PC gaming is posed to be there by the time Valve’s FEX begin rolling like proton itself is doing today.

        Sure, I’m not saying Arm or Qualcomm are irrelevant in the gaming space, in fact I think Arm is going to replace X86 more and more, like we see it happening on servers too.

        But FEX only runs on ARM64. And you wouldn’t put a platform with a 15 year old efficiency-focused CPU into the Steam Frame. So this Kuno platform is probably unrelated to gaming and comes from some other project instead.
