Thank you all for the amazing work you all have done on this project. Feel free to comment if I missed some working kernels or info, I’ll update the original post since there is no wiki (documentation is good!)…
Future
What could we expect for the future ? I am prompted this question by this comment by @smaeul that states that some of the patches to get the 5.7 kernel working are now mainline since 5.13. Also for reference the Linux kernel version history - Wikipedia might give us some info about which kernels are still supported upstream.
