Games compilation howto on the Pinebook-pro (Manjaro Linux and Debian native)

Minetest got fixed last week! A few days after Manjaro 20.04 came out which seems to have much better kernel/Panfrost integration which was good for the GL aspect of it.
The issue with Minetest was that LuaJIT has a 47 bit limitation on specific pointer. Kudos to the Minetest developer (sfan5) that developed the work around.
I find it runs better under GL and not GLES. I've had everything from 48 FPS down to 3 FPS. Most of the time it's around 15-20. Given it seems to bounce around a lot, it's hard to test different settings.
You will need to disable the levelDB build option. It uses a library that causes a segfault. Stick with SQLite or PostgreSQL.
Happy mining!
