Event Timeline

Viacheslav created this task.

Same as with https://vyos.dev/T5619.

I would suggest that all Intel out-of-tree drivers available in Intel repository should be used in favour of the kernel drivers.

Simple because the Intel in-kernel drivers seems outdated and have lots of issues which seems to have been fixed in the out-of-tree drivers.
