Until risc-v is at least as performant as top of the line 2 year old hardware it isn’t going to be of interest to most end users. Right now it is mostly hobbyist hardware.
I also think a lot of trust if being put into it that is going to be misplaced. Just because the ISA is open doesn’t mean anything about the developed hardware.
It isn’t as simple as just compiling. Large programs like games then need to be tested to make sure the code doesn’t have bugs on ARM. Developers often use assembly to optimize performance, so those portions would need to be rewritten as well. And Apple has been the only large install of performant ARM consumer hardware on anything laptop or desktop windows. So, there hasn’t been a strong install base to even encourage many developers to port their stuff to windows on ARM.
I could see developers using both the NVK and M1 drivers depending on which best suits their needs for hardware similarity. It is also interesting that both are not super opensource friendly hardware manufacturers. Good hardware, less so on openness.
Same here. With the exception of the explicit sync, which will hopefully be resolved this week, I have been running Plasma 6 wayland since February. And honestly when I tried the X11 version it had more issues.
Either way you’d have to look at the compositor as that is what handles input. I haven’t used Weston, so I don’t know where to start.
SDDM uses kwin_wayland. Plasma store the setting for that in $(HOME)/.config/kcminputrc I believe that is used by a different part that is not used by SDDM. Best suggestion is to submit a feature request. Having proper input support would go along with power management as a needed feature for SDDM on wayland.
Not sure if your distro version has a new enough version of systemd, but newer versions have a systemd-oomd service for that. It may not be enabled by default. On older versions you could try early-oom which is not part of systemd. OOM stands for Out-Of-Memory.
Yes, that should work as well.
Try adding to the fstab options uid=#### with the #### replaced with the user id you are using. If you are using more users other options may be needed.
Edit: also check ‘man mount.cifs’ for other options.
I am interested in this as well. I currently have an iPad Pro and while I won’t be upgrading right now, I have been looking in the space for the future. I’d prefer something more powerful than and M1/M2 iPad to even consider switching. I haven’t seen much in the tablet space that is not Apple orAndroid, but while being performant. I saw that Minisforum has announced the V3, but it isn’t out yet. Has an AMD 8840u, 14" 165hz display. Looks promising, but I’d be worried about battery life.
I have has zen2 and zen3 systems and haven’t run in to that either. So Zen2+ systems should be mostly fine.
If you get an M1 or M2 mac it should mostly work. If you need thunderbolt(WIP) or vulkan(WIP) then you will have to wait. Otherwise accelerated desktops work and audio is working now. Honestly if you compare performance to competing systems, they end up pretty similar in pricing.
Sure it aged well. WAY WAY BIGGER than gnu.
My community college(1997) had a Suse linux computer lab that I learned on. It was mostly used as a networking/server and programming platform.
Loki was the leading porting developer at the time.
