Well, for one thing, an 11-year-old I7 will beat out an 11-year-old ARM machine, but a Raspberry Pi 4 for example will probably give it a run for its money, not to mention the fact that the I3, I5 and I7 are all at least 12 years old in any case. The bottleneck in the Raspberry Pi 4 is probably the i/o more than processing, although they seem to have fixed a good bit of the i/o issues of earlier incarnations. I do want to see a RISC-V computer in the not-too-distant future, as that should blow everything out of the water by all accounts, and the architecture is open source, and is said to be capable of 128-bit computing.


Regarding the scripts that run Firefox and whatnot, these are still in the repository at

https://gitlab.com/f123/Kies

Everything you need is in the folder called kies_wrappers. They used startx to run jwm and Orca in the background and Firefox and some other apps on top. These certainly could be modified to run flwm instead of jwm. As I recall, there were also scripts or functions that would stop Fenrir trying to speak the graphical console.
