Seeking information to build software to support windows software apps to run on upcoming Snapdragon X Elite arm processor?
The open-source and performant ones are https://fex-emu.com/ and https://box86.org/, but they are not written in Rust. Their documentation is probably the best bet if you want to build something along these lines.

Have you ever tried to run STEAMCMD on a Beaglebone Black ?
On the official repo if you scroll down there is steam compatibility and it says that in the root of the repo there is the steam install script. https://github.com/ptitSeb/box86

Steam not available ?
That means it'll need a 32-bit emulator to run on, but as it says on box86.org, box86 only runs on 32-bit ARM chips. Hence it runs on a Pi2 but not a Pi3 or higher.

Factorio on Arm: A Benchmark
Recently, I got a server from Oracle Cloud, having 4 cores and 24GB of RAM. Then, using a software called Box86 and its 64 bit version called Box64, I succeeded in running Factorio! Unfortunately, 1.1.80 ran at 3 UPS! I went through each major version, testing each individual one down to 0.12. Here are my results!

Does my white thinkpad count~?
Unfortunately box86 requires a little-endian processor, and the G4 is a big-endian processor so it won’t work

Stream Steam VR games to your standalone VR-Headset: ALVR v20.0.0 released
A guess, but SteamVR can't recover from VR applications crashing causing all future ones to not work, might be Home crashing first. Try turning off Home, and restarting.

Need help getting SteamVR working properly
Yes, the beta - SteamVR Beta Update also has the same problem, but with extra bugs like this issue for "Shared IPC Compositor Init Failed (303)". The linux_v1.14 - Older build, for Linux users also has the same problem. The None beta version is the only one I can use, as it doesn't show the "Shared IPC Compositor Init Failed (303)" error.
