![]() Distros need to package our userspace tooling and, at this time, offer 16K kernels. As with many other platforms, there is some integration work required. Our goal is to upstream everything, but that doesn't mean distros instantly get Apple Silicon support. No generic ARM64 distro ships 16K kernels today, to our knowledge. While you can boot an upstream 6.2 kernel on desktops (M1 Mac Mini, M1 Max/Ultra Mac Studio) and do useful things with it, that is only the case for 16K page size kernel builds. There is no trackpad/keyboard support upstream yet. ![]() ![]() However, there is still a long road before upstream kernels are usable on laptops. We are continuously upstreaming kernel features, and 6.2 notably adds device trees and basic boot support for M1 Pro/Max/Ultra machines. Saturday Asahi Linux called ZDNet's story "misleading and borderline false," posting on Twitter that "You will not be able to run Ubuntu nor any other standard distro with 6.2 on any M1 Mac. Last week ZDNet reported Linux had added upstream support for the Apple M1 Pro, M1 Max, and M1 Ultra chips and then concluded that "newer Mac owners can look forward to running Linux on their M1-powered machines."
