Fedora Asahi Special Interest Group

Mission

The goal of this SIG is to help the folks working on support for ARM-based Apple Macintosh computers (otherwise known as "Apple Silicon Macs").

To help with this, SIG members will maintain packages related to this support in Fedora Linux and work with the upstream Asahi Linux project.

We are also aiming to produce a Fedora Asahi Remix in the near future.

Organization

This SIG is organized around the @asahi-sig FAS group: https://accounts.fedoraproject.org/group/asahi-sig/

This is the group in Dist-Git: https://src.fedoraproject.org/group/asahi-sig

There is a discussion mailing list, which you are welcome to subscribe to: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/asahi.lists.fedoraproject.org

There is also a private mailing list: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/asahi-sig.lists.fedoraproject.org

The private list is primarily used for the asahi-sig Bugzilla account which used to assign ARM Macintosh bugs to.

Our real-time chat channel is on Matrix: https://matrix.to/#/#asahi:fedoraproject.org

Our project tracking is on Pagure: https://pagure.io/fedora-asahi/project

We maintain a set of add-on packages for supporting ARM Macintosh platforms in COPR: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/groups/g/asahi/coprs/

Upgrading to kernel-edge (for accelerated graphics)

A common query is how do I upgrade to kernel-edge, i.e. the one with accelerated graphics.

In order to do this, run:

sudo dnf install asahi-repos-edge

and follow the instructions.

Sometimes on reboot, users have reported that they have not booted into kernel edge by default, to fix this you may run a command like below to set the default grub option:

sudo grubby --set-default=/boot/vmlinuz-${KERNEL_EDGE_VERSION}

and reboot.

Some have reported the above command doesn't work:

$ sudo grubby --set-default=/boot/vmlinuz-${KERNEL_EDGE_VERSION}

The param /boot/vmlinuz- is incorrect

You have to actually use a file that exists, ${KERNEL_EDGE_VERSION} must be replaced with something that actually exists.
