<DC-IRC> [Discord] <stalkeruser_42750> As of 2025/05/03, what is the current state of the NPU for the RK3588 on kernel 6.12 and up ? booted the Armbian with 6.13 kernel and I have network but no NPU ? I'm motivated to help with adding support for it. Quick search here returns this: 1 - there is an open source effort by Tomeu Vizoso, 2 - use Armbian BRANCH=vendor kernel if you need NPU/MPP,
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <stalkeruser_42750> 3 - someone compiled something https://discordapp.com/channels/854735915313659944/858684284070789130/1319787813721604147 , tag @zwillx
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <stalkeruser_42750> I have some hardware to test on as well

<DC-IRC> [Discord] <beohoff3174> you'd probably have to forward patch the NPU driver to the kernel from the vendor kernel
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <beohoff3174> Not sure how hard that is, but in general I think most people either use the vendor kernel when they want the drivers or they use mainline when they want mainline
