Hi All,

I released the alpha4 of kernel 5.14 for the X1000 and X5000 today.

New:
Download: linux-image-5.14-alpha4-X1000_X5000.tar.gz

Screenshot of ubuntu MATE 16.04.7 LTS PowerPC with the alpha4 of kernel 5.14 as a domain member in the ADS domain HS21.COM:

Please test the kernels.

Thanks,
Christian

@kilaueabart

I have seen that your Fienix doesn't have hardware 3D acceleration. Why? Which graphics card is installed in your X5000 (lspci)? Do you still use the fbdev driver in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf?

I guess this is the card: 0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Cape Verde PRO [Radeon HD 7750/8740 / R7 250E]
My /etc/X11/xorg.conf seems to be empty:
fienix@Fienix:~$ ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf
/etc/X11/xorg.conf

I also have an empty /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d, whatever that is.

No idea what 3D acceleration is, but maybe something good? Googling it doesn't give me a clear answer, except maybe it makes things run "smoother"? Please advise. Should I get a better graphics card, if possible?

I see. You have a SI Radeon graphics card. This card doesn’t offer hardware 3D acceleration.

FYI: Power fixes 5.14-2

New:

Fix crashes on 64-bit Book3E due to use of Book3S only mtmsrd instruction. That means, the interrupt patch because of the boot issue is in the official kernel source code.
