Hi,

You wrote in this projects readme that gpu as well as npu support may not be possible without going into detail on that assumption. I was wondering if there's any reasoning behind this/any technical blockers for supporting the platforms npu/gpu?

Cheers

Good question, let me explain it:

  1. The GPU driver of TH1520 is closed source, and it's high coupling with the operation system, make it quite difficult to make it work on NixOS.
  2. As for NPU, no one has seem to be done any work related to it yet, and even licheepi4a's official docs does not contain any relevant contents(only a TODO).

Therefore, it may be not possible for me to fix these two drivers.
