As another aside: has anyone used the Intel arc graphics cards on Linux? I saw the passive Matrix a310, which looks amazing for my use case (driving two or three acreens, occasional AV1 acceleration).
- goosedragons 3y agoI have an A380. You need kernel 6.2 or higher for it work out of the box. Kernel 6 can be done but you need to force the driver as it was still considered experimental. Intel's backported driver for Ubuntu 22.04 is awful, I would see hard freezes within an hour and it could just not do X11 without garbled colors. Overall it works pretty well as a display adapter with 6.2+, currently games using DirectX 12 don't work under Linux because of some missing driver features.
- washadjeffmad 3y agoI've got an A770 16GB LE and A770M/A780 from a 13700K, purchased at launch for OpenVINO, OneAPI, and Intel-specific ML/GAN research. Just switched back to Linux to try the i915 driver and kernel 6.2 updates, and it works really well. AV1 and VP9 encoding is killer. There's an Arc bug where displays either don't initialize on boot or after sleep, but it's common to Windows, as well. There are some other quirks, but the painpoints at least aren't driver related, like fglrx or proprietary nvidia. Honestly, it's a good arch that's steadily improving to very little fanfare.
