x11docker/xfce-wine-playonlinux

Xfce desktop containing wine, winetricks, q4wine and playonlinux

  • Get x11docker from github to run GUI applications and desktop environments in docker images.
  • Use x11docker to run image.

Please build image instead of pulling it

docker hub does not provide automated builds for free anymore. So this image is becoming old and outdated. Instead of pulling this image, please build it locally yourself. x11docker can do this for you with:

x11docker --build x11docker/xfce-wine-playonlinux

Examples:

Run Xfce desktop including wine:

  • x11docker --desktop --cap-default x11docker/xfce-wine-playonlinux

Use host folder to preserve installed Windows applications with option --home:

  • x11docker --desktop --home x11docker/xfce-wine-playonlinux

Run PlayOnLinux only:

  • x11docker --home x11docker/xfce-wine-playonlinux playonlinux

Options:

  • Persistent home folder stored on host with --home
  • Shared host folder with --sharedir DIR
  • Hardware acceleration with option --gpu
  • Clipboard sharing with option --clipboard
  • Sound support with option --pulseaudio or --alsa
  • Language setting with --lang=$LANG
  • Printing over CUPS with --printer
  • Webcam support with --webcam

See x11docker --help for further options.

Language

The default language locale setting is en_US.UTF-8. You can change to your desired locale with x11docker options. Compare the output of echo $LANG on your host computer.

  • Example for german: --env LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
  • Example for chinese: --env LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8

Fonts: chinese, japanese, korean

To enable chinese, japanese and korean fonts in wine, run winetricks cjkfonts. You can also use a starter provided on the desktop for this.

Extend image

To add your desired applications, create your own Dockerfile with this image as a base. Example:

FROM x11docker/xfce-wine-playonlinux
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get install -y vlc
