Manikanta, it sounds like you have installed the open source Mesa drivers for OpenGLES2 but not the closed-source GPU drivers you need for hardware acceleration. MeeGo requires hardware acceleration (otherwise uxlaunch can hog CPU), so you will need to get the proprietary drivers for your platform from your SoC vendor. For example, from TI on the Pandaboard I needed the PVR drivers for the SGX540 GPU, which were only available in Ubuntu .deb packages, which turned out to be a royal headache (the alien package converter choked on binaries). Here's my experience: http://wiki.meego.com/Hardware-accelerated_graphics_on_Pandaboard_using_MeeGo Note that MeeGo I.2 on ARM requires hardfp drivers, which means in essence that the only supported SoC right now is Tegra2, where excellent work has been done by vgrade: http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/TEGRA2 So at this instant, you must either a) run MeeGo 1.1 with softfp drivers on ARM; b) run MeeGo 1.2 using vgrade's method on Trimslice; c) run MeeGo 1.2 on Atom. While I had pursued option a), as reported above, I have jumped to option c), in the hope that I can resume my work with Pandaboard if/when TI releases hardfp drivers. -- Alison Chaiken (650) 279-5600 (cell) http://www.exerciseforthereader.org/ INplanatory documentation: that which sucks comprehension right out of the reader's mind and destroys it. _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list MeeGo-dev@meego.com http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev http://wiki.meego.com/Mailing_list_guidelines
