    I hope they’ll don’t mess up the graphics drivers again. The correct approach is to adapt the normal Linux Mesa drivers but I’ve read somewhere that with the S22 they used some weird combination of stacked translation layers on top of what I assume is a port of AMD’s Radeon drivers for Windows which then was suspected to cause some of that performance regression compared to Quallcomm.

        🤷 Maybe that’s the source code delivered by AMD to Samsung?
