Hi Chris,

The update of seL4 is scheduled for version 17.08. Please see our road
map [1] for our planning.

Admittedly, I do not fully grasp the question. Are you referring to a
particular AMD CPU with integrated graphics? As far as I know, graphics
devices are usually realized as PCI devices and most cards support VESA.
Have you tried our VESA driver with your device?

We do not have a current ambition to focus specifically on AMD hardware
in the immediate future. If there is commercial interest, of course we'd
work on it as a commissioned project, but not on our own account.

Cheers
Norman
