1 | # Link: The first conformant M1 GPU driver |
| 2 | ||
| 3 | => https://rosenzweig.io/blog/first-conformant-m1-gpu-driver.html The first conformant M1 GPU driver | |
| 4 | > Conformant OpenGL® ES 3.1 drivers are now available for M1- and M2-family GPUs. | |
| 5 | ||
| 6 | > To become conformant, an “implementation” must pass the official conformance test suite, designed to verify every feature in the specification. The test results are submitted to Khronos, the standards body. After a 30-day review period, if no issues are found, the implementation becomes conformant. The Khronos website lists all conformant implementations, including our drivers for the M1, M1 Pro/Max/Ultra, M2, and M2 Pro/Max. | |

| 8 | The work the Asahi team is doing is simply incredible! I’ve been using the arch based flavor for a while now, and it’s been a great experience. I replaced i3 with sway now that hardware acceleration is working properly and it’s very smooth. Linux is blazing fast in Apple Silicon machines. | |

| 10 | I know there’s still a lot of work to do, and I’m very thankful to the Asahi team for all of the effort. Can’t wait to see how it continues! | |
