# Now streaming: Collabora XDC 2025 presentations

**[Collabora Blog](https://daily.dev/sources/collabora)** · 5 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Collabora's graphics team delivered five talks, assisted in two sessions, and ran a beginner workshop at XDC 2025 in Vienna. Topics covered include Vulkan resource mapping and descriptor advances, the Tyr GPU kernel driver written in Rust for ARM Mali GPUs, adding YUV texture format support to Mesa/OpenGL, PanVK progress over the past year, NVK/Nouveau updates including Vulkan 1.4 and conformance on multiple GPU architectures, Imagination's PowerVR Mesa Vulkan support, and challenges in Mesa's CI pipeline. All talk recordings are now available on the X.Org YouTube channel.

## Questions this post answers

### What is the Tyr GPU driver and how does it relate to Panthor in the Linux kernel?

Tyr is a new GPU kernel mode driver written in Rust targeting ARM Mali GPUs. It is being developed alongside the existing C-based Panthor driver, with plans for the two to co-exist in the kernel for the foreseeable future. The roadmap includes upstreaming Tyr and building out Rust-for-Linux abstractions needed for the driver.

_Developers following Rust-for-Linux and GPU driver work can track Tyr's upstream progress on daily.dev._

### What Vulkan conformance milestones has NVK achieved for Nouveau?

NVK reached Vulkan 1.4 support and achieved Vulkan conformance on Maxwell, Pascal, Volta, and Kepler GPU architectures. The project also switched to Zink for OpenGL. These advances were presented at XDC 2025 by Faith Ekstrand, who also outlined plans for future development.

_Engineers working on open source NVIDIA driver support can follow NVK and Nouveau developments on daily.dev._
