Should I move on from hoping RPI5 will work??
I keep seeing things about mainline kernel support for the RaspberryPi 5. I certainly haven't been about to get anything but RP's own OS to work. Will their kernel build on openSUSE? Should I just get cheap x86 machines instead? Thanks. Bill

Yes, sometimes it's hard to stay on the right path ;)

With some effort, yes. But given that this effort is in vain once all features are mainline, nobody bothers, I guess. It will be a one-off.

Definitely not! There are even more powerful yet less popular ARM boards available, check out the rk3588 SoC for example. Video out is in the pipe, the dual monitor I'm expecting will take a bit longer... Torsten
