Dunno what your angle is but RPi has always been a shitty low end ARM core... even the newer ones. At $7.5 for a large and competitive with the best in...

[cb88]

ARM cores are decidedly not cheaper, ARM has licensing costs when produced at the same volume RISC-V will always be cheaper due to no licensing costs....

[cb88]

I think at some point we will see RISC-V boards outstrip the RPi boards, feature and ease of use wise.

Already at $7.50 you get an 800Mhz...

If you are buying this machine it should be obvious what Graphics card to get... Yes there are Power9 drivers for Nvidia hardware but it is binaries and...

[cb88]

That's irrelevant if you OS implements application remoting which is being done by Windows, and probably Linux soon enough (has done forever with X11...

Chiplets are the smaller dies the 7nm ones, the 14nm die isn't a chiplet its the IO hub die....

[cb88]

It's an Pro/AI compute card and those tend to have lower clocks than Gaming cards. A 7nm gaming GPU on this process in it's current state would probably...

[cb88]

Indeed, if it was gonna be ugly I'd rather have had a FLTK app, at least it would be fast with few deps.

At least that would be lightweight...

That Linus's LKML post was painful to read. Should have just posted a one or two lines about friggin getting their work done in time for the merge window....

[cb88]

I agree, my point was people should't be expecting to hook up a GPU, HDD and some USB ports to this and expect it to look like a workstation when it's...

[cb88]

If you compare this to Zen or Intel's architectures... its about 20 years behind. An Ultrasparc II was doing 4 wide instruction issue in 1998, and it...

[cb88]

No what I mean was more like what happens with bufferbloat mitigations where no application gets 100% of the disk usage quota... which maintains latency...

[cb88]

Actually under full disk load Haiku still has issues, it's more noticeable with slow disks though. The Haiku IO scheduler could probably use some improvements...

[cb88]

What are you even talking about "keep making OpenGL drivers" ... OpenGL is not depreciated and is still an evolving technology alongside Vulkan....

[cb88]

You should post your /var/log/syslog when this occurs... also note that there have been alot of wifi / ethernet related fixes in the past few days that...

[cb88]

It works fine in VirtualBox you must be doing something specific that breaks it. Also I would suggest you use the 32bit hybrid version as it has more...

[cb88]

It's a personal desktop workstation OS. Linux/Windows do not have this same focus (Linux mostly focuses on Servers , and Windows used to have this focus...

[cb88]

Effectively all GPUs that have Vulkan do have a Gallium driver already... at least any of them with any direct mesa support at all. I can only see this...

[cb88]

Fully integrated monolithic APUs can't scale to high performance configurations and will always be limited to low-midrange. The only reason consoles do...

[cb88]

Anything using a VLA would have been small, anything dynamically allocated and larger like buffers etc should have already been using kmalloc.... and...
