I use Distrobox with my NixOS machine for when I need AppImage support (or some random binary that isn’t equipped for Nix’s weird ass directory layout) and it’s amazing! Pretty much native speed, and when I’m done with it I can just wipe it out. Perfect!
I’m aware, but the appimage I run (Slippi Launcher) will run other appimages, and appimage-run can’t handle that, since it extracts the appimage, then runs the contents, but it won’t automatically do that for other appimages that are run.
Which is why I used a Distrobox and it was awesome, worked like a charm. I used Arch previously, and I just made an Arch distrobox and it worked perfectly.
Just for clarification, were you able to read the card from this machine before?
I had a similar issue where my SD card reader was not able to read a card with a newer standard like SDXC or whatever it was and i had to find a newer reader.
I use a Rode NT1 with a Focusrite Scarlett 4i4 3rd (!) gen. It's not quite "just works", you need to set up parameters for the USB sound kernel module to get the Scarlett working. Otherwise it "just works".
Be careful with Focusrite products in general and read the Linux kernel project's instructions very carefully on supported products, in case you're interested in such a device (e.g. it's common that 3rd gen works, 2nd or earlier doesn't).
