What works and what doesn't work?

Part Status Note
Keyboard (with volume keys, brightness keys, media control keys)
Trackpoint
Touchpad & 5 keys & gestures There are 2 versions of EFI in the release. EFI_Acidanthera_VoodooPS2 uses Acidanthera's VoodooPS2 kext, which does not support macOS touchpad gestures. EFI_SkyrilHD_VoodooPS2 uses SkyrilHD's VoodooPS2 kext, which supports all macOS touchpad gestures, but this kext makes your laptop unstable, your laptop may freeze or reboot on its own. If you don't need to use touchpad gestures, I recommend using EFI_Acidanthera_VoodooPS2.
RJ45 LAN Port
Wifi
Bluetooth Bluetooth can stop working after sleep, this problem happens with all non-native cards. There is no fix yet. You can track the bug here. If you want Bluetooth to work stably, you can use macOS BigSur instead of Monterey.
