I had been waiting for a really long time for that video by the Linux Experiment (really good Linux youtuber) which is also available there: https://tilvids.com/w/bLPmGvqHd69ANdPdhRZXWV .

Sadly, as I’m on Fedora, there are a few differences from Ubuntu (DNF instead of APT) and I can’t use the PPA from the github links ( https://github.com/quickemu-project/quickgui/releases?page=1 , https://github.com/quickemu-project/quickemu?tab=readme-ov-file ).

I’m sure it’s easy once you get to the beginning of the video but since I can’t install quickgui and I’m stuck.

It would be really nice if I could get some help as I’m sure it’s fairly easy for someone more knowleadgable than me.

I should just add that I don’t even really know what DNF, APT and PPA are. I just know it’s related to my problem.

Edit: Basically I’m stuck at the part where you have to use the terminal to install quickgui with these lines

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannick-mauray/quickgui sudo apt update sudo apt install quickgui

    quickemu actually has installation instructions for Fedora. I’m using OpenSUSE, which unlike Fedora doesn’t have installation instructions at all, that’s why I ended up using Distrobox. I looked at my command history and I think this is what I did.

    1. distrobox create --image ubuntu macos-vm-box
    2. distrobox enter macos-vm-box
    3. sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
    4. sudo apt install software-properties-common
    5. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannick-mauray/quickgui
    6. sudo apt update
    7. sudo apt install quickgui
    8. Use quickgui

    It should also work on Fedora, but I may have missed some commands.
