Never talked about the important thing. Are the kernel modules fully open source and is the SoC fully documented publicly. If those two aspects are not a yes, this entire affair is an attempt to steal hardware ownership just like phones.
Yeah, exactly. At that point better get an m1; at least the work has already been done on them.
Yes, they submitted initial patchset to Linux kernel back in October (1 day after snapdragon X announcement). On Qualcomm’s website they say that full support for the chip will be merged into Linux kernel within six months.
So no, the marketing shysters are simply trying to silence the self aware minority. /s
Wow, Linaro. that’s a name I haven’t heard in a while. They were the ones to optimize Android builds during the IceCreamSandwich days and just last day I was wondering if there were any third party optimization project still out there. All the best to them.
