Thankfully Linux 6.0 stable is due out this weekend, ahead of the 12 October official launch.

Intel's Compute-Runtime for OpenCL and Level Zero also has already fully open-source and working DG2/Alchemist support as previously covered.Īs outlined in that prior A380 testing article, the DG2/Alchemist desktop graphics cards are still tucked behind a module option to indicate its "experimental" status, but if setting that option, there is accelerated DG2/Alchemist open-source support right now. For upstream, open-source support look for Linux 6.0+, Mesa 22.2+, and the recent linux-firmware.git for the necessary GuC firmware. Expect the situation to play out roughly as what I outlined in Intel Arc Graphics Running On Fully Open-Source Linux Driver. But as usual for the "unboxing" embargoes, I can't actually share any benchmarks or other revealing details yet - stay tuned for October.īut I can reiterate what I have previously reported on based on my close tracking of Mesa and Linux kernel developments as well as from my existing Arc Graphics A380 Linux testing: the Arc Graphics A750 and A770 run on open-source, upstream Linux drivers.

Thus here is what the Arc Graphics A750 and A770 desktop graphics cards look like in the flesh. Yep, the Arc Graphics A750 and A770 are already at Phoronix for Linux testing! Thus allowed to share what the graphics card and press packaging looks like and in turn ultimately confirming the hardware has arrived. Today's embargo lift on the graphics side for Intel's busy Innovation week is the "unboxing" embargo for the Arc Graphics A750/A770. This week was word of the Intel Arc Graphics A770 launching for $329+ on 12 October, yesterday was the embargo lift on the Arc Graphics A750 also shipping on 12 Ocrober for $289+, and now today is another embargo lift concerning Intel Arc Graphics.
