T2/Linux Now on Snapdragon X1 Elite DevKit!
2025-06-10We’ve hit another milestone in ultra-portable Linux support: T2/Linux now runs on the Qualcomm Snapdragon X1 Elite Dev Kit — originally designed for Windows-on-ARM.
Thanks to a generous hardware sponsor, we’ve brought T2/Linux up on this high-performance ARM64 desktop platform. But turning a proof-of-concept into a seamless Linux experience requires quite some integration work: device trees, firmware extraction, early graphics USB-C DisplayPort Alt-mode, and much more need to be correctly build, configured and intregrated in boot-loader, initrd, and installer.
We're working hard to wire up everything needed for full installer support. Got a Snapdragon device ro want to help? Let’s us know!
