Initial patches have been merged into Linux 6.14, with larger updates planned for 6.15 and 6.16. Collabora is also producing Debian Trixie (Debian 13) images in headless, Weston, and GNOME variants for easy device testing. Additionally, Genio 350, 510, 700, and 1200 EVKs have been added to the Collabora lab and are now available for boot and functionality testing via KernelCI. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.

The first upstream support for MediaTek Genio SoCs was merged into Linux 6.14, expected to release in March. Larger updates are planned for versions 6.15 and 6.16. Collabora tracks the enablement status of Genio SoCs and EVKs on their public mainline status page. _Engineers bringing new SoCs upstream track kernel merge windows like these on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [MediaTek Genio upstream update: from HDMI 2.0 to booting on U-Boot and TF-A](https://daily.dev/posts/mediatek-genio-upstream-update-from-hdmi-2-0-to-booting-on-u-boot-and-tf-a-ekpmbqqvf) · Collabora Blog · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Canonical expands Ubuntu support to next-generation MediaTek Genio 520 and 720 platforms](https://daily.dev/posts/canonical-expands-ubuntu-support-to-next-generation-mediatek-genio-520-and-720-platforms-locqahw5a) · Ubuntu · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [MediaTek MT7927 "Filogic 380" WiFi Support Coming Together For Linux](https://daily.dev/posts/mediatek-mt7927-filogic-380-wifi-support-coming-together-for-linux-gzkhfjene) · Phoronix · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#linux](https://daily.dev/tags/linux), [#embedded](https://daily.dev/tags/embedded) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/mediatek-genio-update-kernel-debian-13-images-and-kernelci-izpnskmq4) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"MediaTek Genio update: Kernel, Debian 13 images, and KernelCI","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/mediatek-genio-update-kernel-debian-13-images-and-kernelci-izpnskmq4","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/mediatek-genio-update-kernel-debian-13-images-and-kernelci-izpnskmq4"},"datePublished":"2026-08-11T08:54:37.645Z","dateModified":"2026-08-11T09:18:52.376Z","description":"Collabora and MediaTek have made progress on upstream Linux kernel support for MediaTek Genio IoT SoCs.
