What about you?

Even though I hope that the thoughts above resonate with you, I'm pretty
sure you have different perspectives. Please share them!
How did you perceive the Genode year 2022?
Most of my time working with Genode is related to my job. Privately i
did build a test machine to run Genode on. The onboard Nic of this
machine isn't supported by the ipxe network driver. Therefore I started
porting the intel_igc driver from Linux. I hope I can finish this soon.
The original plan was to port the AMD Radeon drivers (Framebuffer) from
Linux. This was interrupted by the intel_igc driver thou.
What directions are you most excited about?
As I want to replace my main setup (Linux/KVM with virtual machines for
different tasks) with a Genode system. I'm very interested in everything
related to things that enable Genode to run on my main desktop machine.
Two points that Alex brought up caught my attention:
- Extended multi monitor
- support for AMD GPUs. This I have on my task list for some time now,
unfortunately I never had time to do it.
An other point I'm interested in, is Genode on the PinePhone (mine
should arrive on Friday). One thing I would want to use this for, is
thedering in locations with no WiFi but LTE coverage. This can currently
be done via the LAN port of the dock I think.
One point that is probably not that easy and further out, is the
possibility to pass through a PCI device (Graphics cart) directly to a
virtual machine.
Which topics do you deem as interesting to explore yourself?
Do you already happen to have rough plans about 2023?
First of all I want to finish the port of the intel_igc driver.
Second, now that support to port libraries with Goa is nearing
completion, I would like to use this to port neovim to Genode. Not that
vim isn't enough to edit files. I would like to test out, what can be
achieved that way.
If there is time left I would like to help in porting AMD Radeon drivers
from Linux and test them.
Cheers Pirmin
