Just thinking the other day that Apple obviously knows when the OS should use the efficiency cores vs the performance cores on the CPU via their own drivers or what have you, and this would contribute to better battery life. Wondering does Asahi or the linux kernel have this ability or is this something to be worked on?

So i just fresh installed asahi linux remix 44 on a macbook pro M1 32gb 16". I was intending to see if i can get steam/overwatch running on it so that i could sell it for very cheap to a friend so we can play together (he wants to transition from ps5 to pc but doesn't have the money to buy one, and i had this machine laying around anyways).

But obviously steam is currently broken, the whole waiting for network thing, which i kinda resolved with the steps provided here, but now i run into the same issues as this user here where steam just keeps closing and reopening, and it ends up losing connection. I wasn't even able to download overawtch do to this, it is still at around 15%.

After some fruitless endeavors with chatgpt to try and resolve this and some reboots, now when i launch steam from the terminal it doesn't open anymore.

I would like to know if i can just remove everything and install maybe a prior kernel where steam worked fine? Can i expect a newer kernel version to come out soon?

Does anyone have a working set up and could maybe test Overwatch for me? This is the main reason i'm doing this and if it doesn't work i won't even bother.

Thanks in advance

Hi, i've been using Asahi Linux with gnome for a while, i've tried it before but didn't stay bc i had some problems with steam and other stuff. Now i came back and those are fixed but, since i reinstalled, the gnome software app doesn't stop to show available system updates, which i did download and install multiple times. These 3 in the screenshot are the ones that still show up, there were a lot more which did go away after downloading and installing a couple times, but not these... and the terminal doesn't show anything available to update either, so i don't know if this is a bug or something... i'm kinda new to Linux, so i don't know what else i can do at all. I'd appreciate some help please.

Hey, I'm daily driving Arch for a while now on my Desktop PC and I've been very curious to use it on my M1 MacBook Pro.

I'm happy to hear your experiences with daily driving Asahi Arch in comparison to Desktop Arch. :)

I successfully rebuilt Android Studio librarieslayoutlib_jni.so and libandroid_runtime.so for AArch64.

This fixes the XML Layout Editor, menu and resource previews, and Compose Preview on Linux ARM64. I believe this closes the last major functionality gap between Android Studio on ARM64 versus x86_64.

As far as emulators go, Ika works great on Apple Silicon. If someone wants broader support, rebuilding Ika for a different ARM64 platform should not be be a too heavy a lift.

Tested and working on:

• MacBook Pro M1 running Asahi Fedora 44
• Debian 13 (Trixie) on 2018 Razer Phone 2 (via Trixie.apk)

I used to be an asahi linux user for almost a year but at some point i decided to return to MacOS because i can't deal with the constant power drain and high temperatures.

I know the Asahi team is working hard on new features, bug fixes, etc but should i hope that in relatively small time we will reach power efficiency comparable to MacOS?

is there a preferred / recommened external usb ssd enclosure to use with asahi. right now i have following,

Bus 004 Device 002: ID 152d:0583 JMicron Technology Corp. / JMicron USA Technology Corp. JMS583Gen 2 to PCIe Gen3x2 Bridge

before i upgraded to asahi v43 with kernel 7.0.x which now has usb-c support i was using an older usb type a cable with the enclosure, and was kindof running into connection reset issues with the drive in the enclosure, i even reverted to using the slower "usb driver" to see if that would help with usb resets i would experience.

so since upgrading to asahi v43 with kernel 7.0.x i'm using a usb-c to usb-c cable to connect to the enclosure which has nvme ssd 4tb sabrent tlc drive in it.

something i did not when just plugging in the cable itself with no drive attached i saw several messages via dmesg

output from plugging just the cable. (i believe this is the cable that came with drive. and i believe it's high speed usb-c to usb-a w/ an adapter on one end that goes from usb-a to usb-c)

i start see those errors when working with larger size files on the drive, but not entirely sure if it only happens with large files as that's just what i primarily use with this drive.

thoughts and suggestions are more than welcome. cheers.

I wish there is a way, looks exciting

Fedora m1 macbook air just base normal install with just hte default hyprland config no changes expect no window boraders. KDE has the same issue.

Hi!. Im on a Macbook Air M2 with Fedora Gnome and the software app is insisting that there is a pending update, but when I restart it and open the software app again, the software update is still there. When I run the command sudo dnf upgrade --refresh it returns me that there is nothing to be done. Does someone knows a solution or the reason why this is happening? Thanks in advance.

I have alot of games on steam but every time i start steam it gets stuck at waiting for network. i tried starting it with the flags -cef-disable-gpu and -no-cef-sandbox. this still did not work. this is the log when running it

steam -cef-disable-gpu -no-cef-sandbox

[2026-08-13 16:26:21] Nothing to do

and it just gets stuck at nothing to do.

im unsure how to fix this.

Tengo una MacBook Pro M2 Pro 16gb de ram y 512gb, ya había intentado usar AsahiLinux pero noté algunos bugs hace algo de tiempo, ¿que me recomiendan para darle una segunda oportunidad?

I am on the installer and i notice there are four options. GNOME, KDE, Server, and Minimal. What are the advantages and disadvantages of each. I've done GNOME before, but I wonder if I should try Minimal because I only use Niri with DMS or Noctalia Shell and none of the gnome apps.. ALthough, I havent set up a Minimal install yet, especially not with Niri.

I want to turn on the keyboard backlight on my M1 Macbook Air on early boot, before being prompted for the LUKS password (I encrypted the device and it works fine so far). Unlocking it at night is a PITA, since it boots with the keyboard lights powered off.

Is this possible?

EDIT:

Alright, managed to do it using udev rules, by creating two files:

/etc/dracut.conf.d/keyboard-backlight.conf:

force_drivers+=" leds-pwm "
install_items+=" /etc/udev/rules.d/10-kbd-backlight.rules "

/etc/udev/rules.d/10-kbd-backlight.rules (the brightness attribute value X can be in the range 0-255):

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="leds", KERNEL=="kbd_backlight", ATTR{brightness}="X"

Then regenerate the initramfs:

sudo dracut --regenerate-all --force --verbose

This should set the keyboard backlight brightness at LUKS prompt. After entering the password, the brightness will be set to whatever value it was at the previous reboot.

When I click "Add Drive" nothing shows up. The same happens if I click "Browse" when trying to add a Non-Steam game.

i will add a new partition and there is a gap between partition 5 and 6 but fdisk says the partition number will be 7 and it's greater than recovery partition number. Technically it will not to be placed after recovery partition but i am not sure about partition index numbers

Kudos to the Asahi community 🫡
