    Is this in part due to everyone wanting to put Linux on those new “copilot pcs”?

    I’d love to have a linux’d one of those that battery life from what I’ve heard is insane

      Qualcomm had an exclusivity deal with Microsoft which has expired. I think that’s what is causing them to put relevant code in mainline.

        Ahh so it’s qualcomm themselves doing this? that’s awesome actually I thought it was just more people were interested in reverse engineering them now to get linux going on the new wave of laptops

        Shame gaming on arm kinda sucks at the moment as a whole though
