Gravity Linux: a Fedora Remix for Apple Silicon with a self-destruct plan
Gravity Linux, a Fedora Remix for Apple Silicon with KDE Plasma on Wayland, has released its first alpha built entirely through clean-room reverse engineering. It runs on the M4 Mac mini with hardware-accelerated graphics (OpenGL ES 3.0 and OpenGL 3.3), but lacks suspend, Thunderbolt/USB4 and USB-C display output. The team plans to upstream all driver work to the Linux kernel and then sunset the distro.
- First alpha runs on M4 Mac mini with working GPU and DCP
- No suspend, Thunderbolt, USB4 or USB-C display output support
- M5 support on hold due to macOS 27.0 Beta 5 CPU core boot issue
- Project aims to upstream drivers to Linux kernel and then shut down
