Other features, like Thunderbolt, running displays over USB-C, the system’s built-in microphone, and the Touch ID fingerprint sensors, remain non-functional.
Honestly mad respect to these Devs man. Gotta realise they’re doing this stuff for free and they’re not getting paid. If anyone hasn’t checked out the Asahi Linux blog, do give it a read, it has done fascinating deep dives into Apple’s hardware engineering.
But at least the OpenGL benchmarks work 🫠
Writing drivers is hard, especially with limited or no hardware documentation.
It still has a long way to go, but Asahi Linux getting as far as it has this quickly is impressive enough.

Dude, Linux can’t make fingerprint readers work on regular machines… Nevermind hoping it to work from Apple’s hardware.
I had them working great in my Thinkpad X270, even you could authenticate or use it in the terminal with sudo. I miss my X270 man :/
