Selokhu i-Apple yethula i-Apple Silicon yabe sekuza nama-chips e-M1, bekulokhu kunentshisekelo yokuthola i-Linux ukuthi isebenze kuleyo mishini. Isibonelo esicacile salokho okuzuziwe nokuthi sekuya kuba lula futhi kunenzuzo enkulu ukubona ukuthi umdali walolu hlelo lokusebenza, uLinus Torvalds, wethula kanjani isibuyekezo esisha nge-MacBook Air enechip M2. Okusho ukuthi, okwakamuva kuma-Macs. Inguqulo entsha Linux 5.19 iletha ukuthuthukiswa okuthile, hhayi okuningi, okubalulekile kumaqembu e-Apple ane-M1. Ngakho kuwuphawu oluhle nezindaba ezinhle.
Wonke amasistimu okusebenza adinga ukubuyekezwa futhi i-Linux ayikwazi ukuba ngaphansi. Ake sikhohlwe umbono wokuthi ngenxa yokuthi iwumthombo ovulekile ayidingi ukuthuthukiswa, ngoba i-Linux 5.19 esanda kukhishwa siyabona ukuthi nakuba ingekho eminingi, ikhona. Ngaphandle kokuthuthukiswa kwesofthiwe yayo, ukulungiswa kweziphazamisi, ezinye izici ezintsha zengeziwe futhi ngomqondo wokuthi yini ebaluleke kakhulu kithi abasebenzisi be-Apple, siphawula ukuthi isivele ihlanganise I-Apple eFuse kanye nezilawuli ze-Apple M1 NVMe, ithuthukiswe iphrojekthi ye-Asahi Linux (isinyathelo sokusebenzisa i-Linux ku-Apple nge-M1).
Kuyiqiniso ukuthi luselude ukhalo okusamele luhanjwe ngoba, ngokwamagama kaLinus, kuthiwa ukusetshenziswa kwemishini yakwa-Apple ukuhlanganisa isoftware kunqunyelwe. Ayikaze isetshenziselwe "noma yimuphi umsebenzi wangempela". Isetshenziselwe "yenza test builds kanye ne-bootstraps futhi manje ukumaka kwangempela kokukhishwa."
Ukubuyekezwa okulandelayo kulindeleke ukuthi kube ngo-2023. Lapho kulindeleke ukuthi ukusetshenziswa kwe-Mac ene-M2 ekuhlanganiseni kwalolo hlelo lokusebenza kuyoba uketshezi oluthe xaxa. Okwamanje, kuzodingeka silinde. Okwamanje, singajabulela izindaba zale nguqulo entsha engu-5.19. Iletha izici eziningi ezintsha ku-Intel nakwamanye amapulatifomu, ikakhulukazi ku-gukuphathwa kwamandla edivayisi.
