What is support of Intel video cards on Linux nowadays?
- FirmwareBurner 3y agoAlways have been the best out of the three
- pjmlp 3y agoThe users of Intel cards once upon a time based on PowerVR wouldn't say that.
- FirmwareBurner 3y agoMeh, let's stick to past 10-15 years
- nubinetwork 3y agoAFAIK xe-based GPUs are waiting for the next release to get more bits working, but IGT/UHD should be "fine".
- goosedragons 3y agoThey're fine. At least for the other Alchemist cards, A380, A750, A770, you need kernel 6.2+ for them to work correctly out of the box. Hopefully the same is true of A580. There is some issues, there's no sparse residency support yet so DX12 games don't run under Proton but otherwise they work.
- bravetraveler 3y agoSeems fine, I have one of these Arc cards doing transcoding I haven't been able to prove it yet but it seems to crash when I unplug the temporary display I have on the rack It's either this or unfortunate timing/panics from this old ZFS release candidate/kernel
- orwin 3y agoI had to reinstall X-server (I couldn't find another way to make X use the new Intel drivers for some reason). Except that, all is fine. Upgrade to kernel 6.2+, update Intel drivers, reinstall X, swap cards. I also had to modify my grub and my Xconfig a lot to make my old Nvidia card work, and cleaning it up took an hour. Overall, better experience than with Nvidia. If your computer/install is recent maybe you won't need to reinstall X at all. I kept my Linux across 2 mobo and 4 CPU over 10 years, I usually prefer patching/fixing the issues rather than reinstalling but I think I ought to clean it up.
