Open source the Arc dGPU driver equivalent for Windows 11 #3

Closed paulober closed 1 year ago

Hi there,

Some developers out there, including myself, who appreciate and value the new hardware and like to report bugs so they can be fixed, are using Windows 11. As already known, there are currently some bugs and issues in the drivers for the new Arc GPUs that frustrate gamers and sometimes cause crashes in all kinds of applications. I like to help where I can to improve the current driver situation with Intel's Arc drivers however I can. So I would like to pitch the idea of making Intel's repo for the Windows 11 version of the Arc dGPU driver (also) public, so that enthusiastic developers like us are able to contribute where we can and are able to.

I would be very happy to get a positive feedback from Intel Open Source concerning this topic and hope that the idea will at least be considered.

"(I created this issue in this repository because it is related to the Linux driver, but does not interrupt work in the other repos or might annoy the developers there :))"

Regards and happy coding/gaming
