System76 DKMS Drivers for Silverblue

jntesteves, 16 days ago (edited 11 days ago)

rpm-ostree currently does not support DKMS, and it’s unlikely that’ll be implemented anytime soon, if ever. It does support akmods, though, which is the preferred way to build Kernel modules on Fedora. You could ask if the packager can build that way to support the Fedora Atomic editions.

If you need these Kernel modules now, I think your only option would be to build manually from source, but that has the downside of requiring a manual step every time the Kernel is updated.

Edit: there are a few issue reports already: https://github.com/pop-os/system76-dkms/issues/58 https://github.com/pop-os/system76-acpi-dkms/issues/16

Awesome. This gives me a great starting point. Thanks so much.

And then such an AKMOD would be a good candidate for ublue hardware enablement

Sweet, now I feel even more ignorant, lol.

Nothing like that understanding to take the first steps to remove ignorance. Thank you very much.
