Besilokhu sikhuluma ngamathuba wokufaka i-Linux kuma-processor we-M1 Apple cishe unyaka. Ngemuva kokusebenza isikhathi esingaphezu konyaka futhi sibonga uHéctor Martín (Marcan) owaqala lo msebenzi nyakenye, ngomkhankaso wokubuyisa imali, ithuba lokufaka i-Linux ku-M1 selivele liyiqiniso, yize isantula kancane.
Ithimba elingemuva kwephrojekthi ye-Asahi Linux, elinikezwe umsebenzi wokwenza inguqulo ye-Linux yamaprosesa we-Apple's ARM, lithi isoftware manje "isetshenziswa njengedeskithophu eyisisekelo ye-Linux." akukho ukusheshisa kwe-GPU kumadivayisi afana ne-Apple's 13-inch MacBook Pro ene-M1 ne-MacBook Air ene-M1.
Esikhathini sakamuva ukuvuselelwa kwenqubekela phambili kuleli sonto, iqembu lathi:
Bekuyinyanga ematasa kakhulu! Sibe nokunyakaza okuningi nge-kernel, kanye nokuthuthuka okuthile kumathuluzi nokubuyisela emuva izikhathi zobunjiniyela. Njengamanje, i-Asahi Linux isetshenziswa njengedeskithophu eyisisekelo ye-Linux (ngaphandle kokusheshisa kwe-GPU). Umhlabathi ubuzamazame kuze kube manje, kepha sibona abalawuli bezinza.
Imibiko yombiko inqubekela phambili yabashayeli beLinux nezinselelo ze-Apple's silicon hardware ekhethekile, kepha kukonke, kunezindaba ezimnandi:
Ngalaba bashayeli, ama-M1 Macs ayasebenziseka ngempela njengemishini yedeskithophu ye-Linux! Yize kungekho ukusheshisa kwe-GPU okwamanje, ama-CPU we-M1 anamandla amakhulu kangangokuba ideskithophu enikezwe isoftware ishesha impela kubo kunakwisibonelo, imishini ye-Rockchip ARM64 esheshiswa ngehardware.
Ithimba basebenza ngesifaki esisemthethweni, kepha lokho ngeke kube yinto epholishiwe esikhathini esizayo. U-Asahi Linux uhlela ukubhekana ne-GPU ukuxhasa nalokhu, kepha akakwazanga ukumemezela uhlelo.
