There is official Linux support for Rpi5 already for a while: https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux

Well, at least there is someone involved!

Really hoping my Dell XPS 13 Snapdragon X will get some Linux love. I was expecting Dell to be on the forefront of that given they had Linux shipped in the past, but never see anything mentioned around it.

3 days later, looks like this is still going to take a while https://www.phoronix.com/news/Dell-X...-Linux-Patches

Are these contributions actually by Qualcomm or from the Raspberry Pi Foundation, or is this another case of random community members having to contribute these fixes? For the single most popular Linux-based single-board computer the actual upstream support is honestly laughable at launch, it feels like the community is just left to mop up the mess.

Kudos to Odroid for their M1S and M2 boards. Makes me wonder why Raspberry Pi 5 need around 1 year to get the BCM2712 initial support upstreamed. Or did I made a mistake and actually comparing apple to orange?

M1S, not M15.
