ok i installed debian 13 with open motif. I can run my particle life code. I'm not that interested in cross compiling. my main goal is for it to run old compatible libs. so I can follow the documentation test runt it on my vm. when it feels good enough I can scp over to the old machine compile and run it there. so how to define my question better?

I want my linux or unix virtual machine to be library compatible? so I can code compile test. then transfer and compile on the octane. ofcourse special libraries will not be accessible. but I want to learn OpenGL 1.1 and use my modern keyboard that does not force me to fold my hands 3times over tu type simple characters like {} (Swedish pc keyboard not good for that if it's not Mac keymap.)
