(initially there was some bring-up trickery that led to Linux not booting past Grub, but OpenBSD working fine: https://blog.alexellis.io/linux-on-microsoft-dev-kit-2023/ https://blog.alexellis.io/linux-on-microsoft-dev-kit-2023/ )
Re: Microsoft, Secure Boot should be disable-able and the devices are ServerReady. As close to an open platform as it gets in ARM land. Other than that, we're on our own, unless Qualcomm will help with their mainlining efforts. That'll be almost enough for the DevKit, but the upcoming Snapdragon X laptops have lots of additional stuff besides the SoC itself.
