@illyBytes if someone sends me 2 grand in Monero I'll write at least a basic one for Intel GPUs without vibecoding
HaikuOS seemed fun (I work on Linux Intel GPU drivers for fun)
Or I randomly decide to try out HaikuOS and like it enough

@illyBytes 2 grand is tbh such a random estimate
Take a lookie at the initial commits to the xe Intel driver for the skeleton for driving a modern Intel GPU, it does rely on the Linux kernel for yk, having a lot of existing infra (KMS & GEM, DMA stuff, PCIe...) but yea
(To be clear I didn't write any of it, I mostly poke around in mesa and just fixed a few minor bugs in mesa and play around with my own little portable Rust driver and stuff)

@illyBytes for someone that knows how it works or they can ask someone that knows it'd be easy, I spent years staring at the Linux kernel and Mesa src and crying on IRC for help

@tranquillity looking at src code and crying is me trying to port my nxp mcxn236 to microzig (why is it architectured like that, why is every port slightly architectured differently 😭, how tf is the mcxa the supported board when its fucking definitions are as shallow as a puddle, while the mxcn94something thing has more code??)

@illyBytes those words sound scary to me lmao
MicroZig seems interesting
Reminds me of messing around with arcane zig.build incantantations for some embedded zig I did for arcane freestanding x86 targets
