> Is this is a x86 guest on an x86 host?

Yes, to my understanding, "i386" in the command name means that a x86 guest is produced.

> And is the host running Linux?

Yes.  Debian 10.

> Is the CPU of the host machine under, say, a decade old?

A Dell Dimension 4600.

OK, thanks.  I'll consider it.

LXDE.

Thanks,                                     ... P.
