Make it available on aarch64 ?

[DarkevilPT]

I cant have it on my radxa cm5 rk3588.

Ghostty does build on aarch64 I have seen many people do it.

It seems whatever your package manager you are using does not support aarch64 for zig
https://ziglang.org/download/
there are aarch64 builds for 0.13 which you can download here

pandoc shouldnt need to be required. You might need to set -Demit-docs=false or something similar to make it not generate the man pages

does this board have a GPU that supports opengl 3.3?

Yes, the Rockchip RK3588 supports OpenGL 3.3. It features a Mali-G610 MP4 GPU, which supports:

OpenGL ES 3.2

OpenGL 3.3

Vulkan 1.2

OpenCL 2.2

or at least... its not yet mainlined.. but will.

can you run ghostty in another terminal and show what it prints to the console

yeah... still on 3.1

As a note Arch does not offically support aarch64 or armv7 at all which is why you might not be able to find the packages you need in the AUR / in the offical packages

Arch only claims to work on x86?, x86_64 so any arm stuff that does work is some nice person adding support for it

I wanted to learn what the fuss is all about this modern terminal to add more content to my wee board.

Thats why I will 'ask' if yous would consider to make it compatible.

[jcollie]

Ghostty is compatible with aarch64, the main issue is that Zig is not (at least not until Zig 0.14 is released). There also needs to be support from your distro for aarch64. So there's not really much that Ghostty can do abou this.

[rhodes-b]

@jcollie that issue is only on raspberry pi5 and Asahi linux due to zig 0.13 assuming page sizes of 4k not 16k this is fixed in zig 0.14 like you stated.

If you are on a aarch64 system with 4k page sizes it will work just fine though

Unless this other board also uses 16k page sizes it should work fine.

If not ghostty will be upgrading to zig 0.14 sometime within the next few months I assume
