Linux on (non-Apple) ARM, what is the current status?
Qualcomm Snapdragon, Ampere and maybe others. Support of Snapdragons was said to be quite bad due to the lack of upstream “giving a damn about Linux”.
Has this changed?

i typically imagine the mess of qualcomm drivers is part of the reason why its hard. regardless of the OS, be it windows, android and in this case, linux, driver support has generally been spotty for snapdragon products.
im curious on what the upstream stuff valve is pushing with its steam frame, as its of the few known companies actually paying for development for arm on linux. the device isnt out yet, but should be opened up within the quarter supposedly.
Qualcomm is merging a lot of drivers for snapdragon 2. Seems like theyre trying to improve on the failure that was snapdragon 1 on linux.
