Tried to use this manual about using #wine to launch games in the #FreeBSD #jail

https://pertho.net/2025/11/07/wine-gaming-freebsd-jails/

The manual from @pertho is well-written, I was able to complete all stages without any problems, even though I was too drunk even to use clit mouse on my #Thinkpad — the cursor somehow wouldn't appear where I wanted it to, lol drgn_blush_giggle

BTW, it is not necessary to issue the command "xhost +" since it is too insecure. Since all necessary X server sockets and files are accessible from inside jail, the command "xhost local:" is enough. Only local connections (from local machine and from inside jail) will be accepted.

One minor edit — the command to change to owner of the user directory should be issued twice — the second time at the end of Bastillefile, instead the owner of user directory will be the root.

Log of "wine -q corefonts" in the FreeBSD jail. There are xterm with the log and the AwesomeWM with a vertical left main bar with some widgets, list of opened windows and clock.
