Tried to download NCR license. It says, server is down for maintenance, and come back later. Is it the blender hordes ? I am one of them. : )

Ubuntu 22.10 working fine.
Had to install few additional libraries.
help browser is not working though.

Lots of good ideas. Here's my take: I'd be happy if XPU were to be hardware-agnostic, and not locked in to a singular certain manufacturer.

If Renderman XPU development, which is developed intentend to be hardware agnostic, is an indication of anything, we may not see Karma XPU on AMD GPUs for maybe 5 more years? Personally I would like their resources devoted to optimize, implement QOL features and improve performance better than hardware agnosticism and that's coming from somewhere who after decades on Mac decided to build his own PC in order to get the best out of 3D apps. But I get your point and Mac users may be pissed off.

Blender supports nvidia cuda, Mac Metal, AMD Hip, and intel for GPU render.
