Intel Xe3 Panther Lake OpenGL & Vulkan Support Now Enabled By Default On Linux
With the upcoming Linux 6.17 kernel the Intel Xe kernel graphics driver is enabling Panther Lake graphics out-of-the-box
The code was merged today for effectively declaring the Panther Lake OpenGL and Vulkan open-source driver support on Linux as stable.
