Most Linux apps are open source and can, in principle, just be recompiled to run on Arm, but there are some which are closed source: Google Chrome is a popular example. While an interesting technological trick, this does seem very specialized. This should allow x86-64 Linux applications to run under Arm Linux under macOS. Instead, what the new functionality will do is let an Arm-architecture Linux running under macOS 13 ask the host OS to translate x86-64 binaries for it. On an M1 Mac, the built-in hypervisor can only run operating systems compiled for the Arm instruction set, and for now, that does not include Windows. The new feature is the next best thing: it extends the Rosetta 2 translation functionality into guest OSes running under macOS 13. That would be asking an awful lot of a tool that's intended to translate a single app at a time.

Linux Lite 6.0: It's quite pretty, but 'lite' it is notīut one thing the integral hypervisor can't do is run an x86-64 OS in a VM on an Arm Mac.SUSE releases Service Pack 4 for Linux Enterprise 15.Good news for GNOME fans as Adaptive Sync displays come to Mutter.Linux Mint adopts Timeshift from overworked original developer.Virtio means that OSes running in virtual machines 'know' that they are guests, and can request services from the host via special drivers rather than emulated hardware. For instance, it gained Virtio support on macOS 12. More recently, Apple has improved the hypervisor's features. MacOS has had a built-in hypervisor since macOS 10.10 'Yosemite' in 2014.
