My guess, it should work: https://wiki.raptorcs.com/wiki/POWER9_Hardware_Compatibility_List/PCIe_Devices#Working_3
The card needs a PCIe switch, because the Raptor mainboards doesn't support bifurcation.

It has some benefits.

dormito has developed bangBMC (!BMC).
Here is the original source:

You can find dormito on Talos IRC.

Normally, just run the build script:

I guess, on a RPM-based distro it should work ootb. I haven't tried it myself.

Cool. I hope you find another solution so you don't have to sell your Blackbird.

When you use bangBMC instead of OpenBMC the boot times are approx. 30 seconds.

On Chimera Wayland is the default, not Xorg.

Yesterday, I talked to q66. It seems for whatever reason GDM starts with xorg. Then you ran into that issue:
https://github.com/chimera-linux/cports/issues/184

q66 will look into it.
