17:23 <jas-hacks_> otavio: Hi, for xorg 14.1 did you need to build libdri.so?

17:50 <otavio> jas-hacks_: no

17:55 <jas-hacks_> otavio: it is built in?

17:55 <otavio> yes

18:53 <jas-hacks_> otavio: I get this message when running es2gears "Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0"." and the window remains transparent?

18:58 <jas-hacks_> otavio: looks like DRI failed

19:01 <otavio> :-) the busnumber issue

19:20 <jas-hacks_> otavio: busnumber didn't help :(

19:27 <otavio> jas-hacks_: well

19:28 <otavio> jas-hacks_: without a clear understanding of your system it is hard to guess; did you try Yocto?

19:29 <jas-hacks_> otavio: if I get time will try Yocto ... otherwise some debugging to do

19:55 <bszoke88> hello

20:01 <bszoke88> I own a freescale sabre lite dev kit with imx6 and I would like to know the state of the gpu/video drivers.

20:05 <hste> bszoke88: what sort of state are you thinking of? for running xorg?

20:08 <otavio> bszoke88: working fine

20:08 <otavio> 3.10.9 on the way

20:08 <otavio> ;)

20:09 <hste> otavio: is gk802 in yocto now?

20:10 <otavio> hste: yes

20:10 <otavio> hste: but I am not the one supporting it

20:10 <hste> otavio: so uboot etc is fixed?

20:10 <otavio> hste: no

20:10 <otavio> hste: people used the fork

20:10 <otavio> a shame

20:13 <bszoke88> i got a few images off of the boundary devices site that actually could sow something on my hdmi monitor, however building an image from ubuntu 13.10 core and v3.9.11-imx5 kernel drom rcn-ee site doesn't give me GUI, just the prompt

20:15 <bszoke88> but the same ubuntu base and v3.11.3 kernel I get to the login screen, but no further as gnome says that it cannot start bc. there is no hardware acceleration

20:16 <bszoke88> so I found out the following solutions: 1, use freescale's drivers with an older kernel, here I mean the 3.5.7 alpha, 2, etnaviv, 3, mesa and llvmpipe, 4, write my own driver LOL

20:17 <bszoke88> I came here to find out which one would be the best and what the etnaviv can do now and how to help it further

20:18 <hste> bszoke88: http://eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/i.MX6x+SABRE+Lite

20:19 <bszoke88> yeah, I used that site

20:19 <jas-hacks_> bszoke88: regarding gpu hw a/c , best at moment is kernel 3.0.35_4_1_0 with alpha 2 drivers

20:20 <hste> bszoke88: its a #etnaviv irc channel you could ask about etnaviv there

20:20 <bszoke88> and by that you mean the ones from freescale that are binary and armel, right? sry, forgot to say armhf

20:21 <jas-hacks_> the alpha2 are armhf

20:21 <bszoke88> yeah, couldn't find it

20:21 <bszoke88> and on his site he wrote this channel as well

20:23 <jas-hacks_> bszoke88: I'm currently trying to get ubuntu 13.04 working with the alpha 2 drivers

20:23 <bszoke88> armel or armhf?

20:23 <jas-hacks_> armhf

20:24 <bszoke88> you got the drivers from here? https://community.freescale.com/thread/307061

20:25 <jas-hacks_> no from yocto

20:27 <bszoke88> I've read that fs uses yocto but not really familiar with it. are those binary drivers? do you just copy them over to a ubuntu rootfs?

20:29 <hste> bszoke88: you could look at the testplan they have set up now https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1y68-QjiDmv4ekc9Aq8vIOXUePZ5wvOu_5_1RpdfK7zY/viewform

20:29 <jas-hacks_> bszoke88: it not as easy as 'copying them'. The existing xorg-server driver works up xorg 11, so there are some patches to make it compatible with xorg 13+. The driver then needs to be compiled.

20:34 <jas-hacks_> otavio: making progress .... got glxgears to with run with bare xserver :)

20:37 <bszoke88> ooookaay. help me a little please. If I download the BSP sources from fs, I get gpu-viv-bin-mx6q-3.0.35-4.1.0, imx-vpu-lib-3.0.35-4.1.0, and xserver-xorg-video-imx-viv-3.0.35-4.1.0 packages that seem relevant to video. the first one is binary, the rest can be built, but I somehow did not get a vivante_drv.so which could have been loaded by X11

20:38 <bszoke88> so which one are you porting?

20:38 <jas-hacks_> bszoke88: those files are armel, so not much use

20:40 <bszoke88> also there is a VPU, IPU, 2D GPU, 3dGPU and +1 for which I don't know if there are drivers or not

20:41 <bszoke88> but in yocto there are armhf binary drivers for vivante?

20:42 <bszoke88> do I need the gpu drivers for ubuntu desktop? I mean a gnome-session / GUI?

20:42 <jas-hacks_> bszoke88: Yes in yocto there are armhf binary drivers, however they are still alpha

20:44 <jas-hacks_> Yes you need the gpu drivers for ubuntu deskop, however even with the drivers some apps won't still have full h/w acc becuase of the open GL support.

20:44 <bszoke88> oh. so copy gpu drivers from yocto and re-make the xserver-xorg-video-imx-viv package? is that what you are doing now on an armhf ubuntu 13.04 image?

20:45 <bszoke88> how about llvmpipe?

20:45 <jas-hacks_> yes, but it is not as easy as you think!

20:45 <jas-hacks_> not sure about llvmpipe

20:47 <jas-hacks_> I have a 12.11 rootfs with gpu armhf that you can try but no vpu support.

20:48 <bszoke88> LOL, it took me a month to find a working image from bd with GUI and to set up an ub. 13.10 on my own with a new kernel to a prompt. I thought it would take 20 mins, only loading sg from the net and copy it to an sd-card... silly me

20:50 <bszoke88> are you maybe developing vivante drivers or just trying to put the pieces together?

20:50 <jas-hacks_> Somewhere between the 2

20:52 <bszoke88> llvmpipe is very interesting, bc. now I can get to the login screen, but I am missing that hw. ac. for gnome and as far as I understand llvmpipe would give me a slow openGL 'emulation' on the CPU cores...

20:54 <bszoke88> I am quiet new to this but I think it would be beneficial for me to try to help. so what direction do you think is best? wait for mainline kernel support, help etnaviv or what?

20:56 <jas-hacks_> There's nothing stopping you trying the 3.5 kernel with alpha libraries, I'm trying against the 4.1.0 kernel

21:15 <bszoke88> I'm trying against the 4.1.0 kernel - what does this mean? you have a working img with 3.0.35_4_1_0 kernel and alpha 2 drivers and now you are testing 3.5.7 kernel and alpha 2 drivers?

21:20 <jas-hacks_> Only 3.0.35_4_1_0 kernel against alpha 2 drivers

21:21 <jas-hacks_> and xorg 13

21:25 <bszoke88> ok, thank you, that was helpful
