Running the unmodified Linux amdgpu driver on an iPad

what's with this driver being coupled to an IDE? is one the psychosis enabled bikeshed of the other?

can someone explains this project ? i understand nothing about what it's doing... Do iPads have amd gpus ??

Why are there no screenshots of the "IDE"? Would love to see what it looks like, what features it has, etc.

Unexpected interpretation of on-device inference:

    It drives an AMD GPU in a Thunderbolt enclosure.

Got any pictures of the setup? Which enclosure did you use? Neat!

Would be interesting to render a real desktop environment directly on top of that from the iPad. You'd get an OpenDarwin-like thing with the power of M4.

It's super cool, but then, the question becomes: why?

The eGPU enclosure isn't portable, so at that point, you could just plug it into a linux mini-pc. What's the benefit of using an iPad here?
