Linux App for ARM Processors (Fedora)
I would love to be able to use Dropbox on my Fedora Linux computer, however, it is running on an ARM processor. Right now, Dropbox only supports x86_x64 processors. I know this is probably a very sma...
Using a Pi5 as a desktop computer is "almost" a dream came true. There are some key apps missing yet, as , in my case, Dropbox. Please Please.. please go ahead and implement the required magic for this.
In my case, just in case anyone wanders, other key app is Brother DCP-1610 multifunction printer, but, in this case, I can solve it by using other printer.
Thank you!
Hi RicardoRojas,
Better don't rely on Dropbox support improvement for Linux (including for all possible flavors). There was Linux related the first ARM support request, after that some Windows users started request the same and at the end Mac users (when Apple started moving to their M family processors). First supported was Mac, after that Windows received support and Linux (including all flavors of RasPi), as seems, will never be, unfortunately.

Here You are in confusion!!! Most Brother printers are CUPS based (including the one mentioned by you). So you don't need anything special. Just setup you WiFi and the CUPS on your ResPi will discover the printer automatically and install it. Some extra features may be unavailable (sometimes no everything available is advertised properly on the network), but usually basic features get setup without you touch anything (much faster than on Windows for instance). Did you try it? 🙂 If not, come on! The only requirement is installed and running CUPS service (something usually pre-existing).
- Thank you, but if they still did not implement a software for RPI, us, RPI users, have to ask for it. If they receive many requests, lukily they will implement a solution. Doing the oposite, and not requesting, will not help. Maybe I am wrong but I prefer being positive, these people at dropbox have a set of good programmers, it's only that some manager still belives RPIs are toys, in my opinion.
Regarding printers, cups did not work with my brother when I tried, I already checked and, if I remember well, its related to the peinter not implementing a standard like pcl, or something like that. Anyways, I'll try again, I appreciate your help and guidance.
