  • docs

    Hardware and software docs / wiki (by AsahiLinux)

  • That toot is about upstream Linux 6.2, not Asahi Linux. If you run Asahi Linux (as in the blog post) you get decent (but not complete) legwork-free hardware support. Detailed breakdown here: https://github.com/AsahiLinux/docs/wiki/Feature-Support

  • rosetta-linux-asahi

    Hacked RosettaLinux that runs on Asahi Linux

  • You could try the patched Rosetta2 for Linux + Wine or something!

  • box86

    Box86 - Linux Userspace x86 Emulator with a twist, targeted at ARM Linux devices

  • You could have a look at box86 and box64:

    https://box86.org/ | https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64

    I haven't tried them myself, but I've read consistent testimony that the performance (and compatibility) is great.

  • nixos-apple-silicon

    Resources to install NixOS bare metal on Apple Silicon Macs

  • I do, no issues at all with the beta Asahi kernel, you basically have to git clone https://github.com/tpwrules/nixos-apple-silicon in /etc/nixos/, include a file from that repo in the configuration.nix and configure as you like (beta gpu driver or not, which kernel, 4k pages or not, ecc). The experience then is exactly the same as a stock NixOS installation.

  • powertop

    The Linux PowerTOP tool -- please post patches to the mailing list instead of using github pull requests

  • It just got added in 2023, but there's now --auto-tune-dump which generates a command line invocation of powertop that would set all the auto-tune settings. Instead of running --auto-tune, you can make a script of this dump, modify it to your contentment, and run the script instead of auto-tune at startup.

    Ideally there would also be a way to omit certain tunings from auto-tune as well, but
