Well, 'screen' also implies not just a built-in LCD, but also external screens connected over HDMI or DVI. There are even remnant MACHINE_GUI_CLASS variables set in machine configs for either "bigscreen" or "smallscreen", although that one is no longer used. All TI platforms with am335x SoC do have screen outputs, but I do understand there could be headless platforms from other manufacturers with this SoC. The correct way would be to not completely remove "screen" MACHINE_FEATURE from the SoC include file, but rather move it to corresponding machine configs that use it - am335x-evm, beaglebone, etc. > Signed-off-by: Vivien Didelot <vdide...@pbsc.com> > --- > conf/machine/include/ti33x.inc | 4 ++-- > 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/conf/machine/include/ti33x.inc b/conf/machine/include/ti33x.inc > index 197cac19..c499928c 100644 > --- a/conf/machine/include/ti33x.inc > +++ b/conf/machine/include/ti33x.inc > @@ -61,8 +61,8 @@ UBI_VOLNAME = "rootfs" > > EXTRA_IMAGEDEPENDS += "virtual/bootloader" > > -# List common SoC features, may need to add touchscreen for specific machines > -MACHINE_FEATURES = "kernel26 apm usbgadget usbhost vfat ext2 screen alsa > ethernet gpu" > +# List common SoC features, may need to add "screen touchscreen" for > specific machines > +MACHINE_FEATURES = "kernel26 apm usbgadget usbhost vfat ext2 alsa ethernet > gpu" > > # Set the list of device targets for ti-pdk class recipes > TI_PDK_LIMIT_SOCS = "am335x" > -- > 2.33.1 > -- Regards, Denys Dmytriyenko <de...@denix.org> PGP: 0x420902729A92C964 - https://denix.org/0x420902729A92C964 Fingerprint: 25FC E4A5 8A72 2F69 1186 6D76 4209 0272 9A92 C964
