Improvements for AST2600

(1/2) > >>

Borley:
The Aspeed display driver is supposedly getting some work. I wonder if this could translate into a more usable desktop experience on Blackbird?

ClassicHasClass:
I hope so, though keep in mind it will still never be as fast as a GPU. But I use my Blackbird only with AST graphics, so I look forward to this work.

Borley:
Would Kestral replace AST as graphics adapter? Or does that remain board-side?

ClassicHasClass:
Not that I know of, but Libre-SoC might eventually.

Borley:
Somebody mentioned in IRC that there's a new AST2510 PCIe card from ASRock Rack. Maybe if something like that gets produced with a newer Aspeed chip, we can have an option for a free "graphics card".
