That means Asahi Linux for M1 Mac computers is currently better left to developers that might like to contribute to the open-source project. Notable features that are missing include DisplayPort, HDMI, Bluetooth, Thunderbolt, and as mentioned GPU support for accelerating graphics and video processing. Most Mac and MacBook hardware is supported, including Wi-Fi, USB 2, the screen, NVMe, Lid switch, Power button, keyboard, touchpad, battery information, charge control, Ethernet, SD card reader, and CPU frequency switching. The Asahi Linux team has done a fantastic job of reverse engineering drivers with little to go on. On the other hand, standard apps like the Firebox browser work as expected, within those limitations. That means gaming will not work and it can't even handle video streaming.

The GPU card isn't enabled and admittedly will take quite some time to get working. The Asahi Linux installer allows setting up a separate partition to boot directly into Linux on an Apple Silicon Mac and runs well with a few limitations. Mac-on-Linux is virtualization software developed by Ibrium to allow PowerPC systems to be able to run Mac OS 7.5.2 to 9.2.2, or Mac OS X 10.1 to 10.2.4.
