Do we know anything about Linux support for Snapdragon X.. Personally, I don't trust Qualcomm with Linux support. Their WiFi adapters don't work properly with Linux. Their mobile SoC that supposedly have mainline support only have the CPU part working, but GPU, modem, Bluetooth, etc. won't.
Also, wasn't their history of closed source drivers and their short support timeline was the reason Android devices only ever got 2 years of updates only a few years back?
- wishfish 2y agoHere's what Qualcomm is saying: https://www.qualcomm.com/developer/blog/2024/05/upstreaming-linux-kernel-support-for-the-snapdragon-x-elite https://www.qualcomm.com/developer/blog/2024/05/upstreaming-... They claim they're all in on making Linux work seamlessly on the Snapdragon X. I'll leave it up to you on whether or not to believe them.
- foxandmouse 2y agoFunny enough, that's the article I read before commenting. They've made bold claims in the past and failed to deliver.
