- jamesfmilne 10y agoLinux kernel 4.5 has quite a lot of changes to support the SoC on the Tegra X1 in the mainline kernel. http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1601.2/04595.html http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1601.2/04595.html There is basic GPU support via Nouveau, though for any serious OpenGL/Vulkan/CUDA or video stuff you'd want to use the NVIDIA proprietary drivers, which are very good on Linux.
