So this sound like the people who say we will be able to run first real tests by 2024 are likely right. From there it's then "only" as much work as with Nvidia.

So maybe by 2032 we will have some M1s with somehow HW accelerated graphics. At least it looks like that given the history of Nouveau.
I don't want to put the work down those people are doing! But the truth is likely that without vendor support this will never fly beyond some tech demos.
- sudosysgen 5y agoI'm not sure I'd be so pessimistic either. Perhaps they'd be able to use the open source AMDGPU drivers as inspiration, or perhaps there is something else I'm not thinking about. I think there's a solid chance they get it usable for basic use within a few years. In any case, I truly wish them the best of luck.
