What I would call the “top features” for Linux 4.12 include:
– There is initial GeForce GTX 1000 series 3D accelerated support on the open-source Nouveau driver stack, when using Linux 4.12 paired with NVIDIA’s firmware binary blobs now part of linux-firmware.git. But there isn’t yet any re-clocking, so performance is very slow for Maxwell/Pascal.
