That’s simply false. The driver already exists, and they still refuse to add support. There’s a ticket about it on the SteamOS github page if you don’t believe me. Link.
EDIT: There’s a decky plugin for those (like me) tired of waiting. Link.
Or the part where I said if it was stable? Or where I explicitly acknowledged the out of tree driver that’s a PITA?
The main detail here to answer is if the package has widespread testing and support over a long term, there’s a higher chance that a mainline package will present minimal to no additional overhead to maintain by SteamOS devs compared to an AUR package.

Lol, which part? The part where I said they would turn it on if it was in the mainline kernel?

I guess thanks for doing the leg work on proving me right?
