gnome desktop image for arm?
I am looking at: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/tasks?state=allview=treemethod=applianceorder=-id And do not see a gnome image for f21 arm (let alone any hardware). So obviously I am missing how it is encoded in the description. How do I find the right f21 armhfp image with gnome? xfce is nice, but I DO have 1GB memory # cat /proc/meminfo MemTotal:1010204 kB And I will want the gnome apps. -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test

I don't know if Gnome arm images are being spun up or not, but, the issue with Gnome on ARM is with the graphics, not necessarily the memory. Allwinner A20 is suppose to have a fast GPU... -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test

Allwinner A20 is suppose to have a fast GPU... OpenGL ES or full OpenGL? Almost all Arm chips limit themselves to ES since that is all Android requires. Yes it does make Arm kinda pointless for 'real computing' purposes, but the target market is phones, tablets and settop boxes. A real pity. Next problem is all video drivers on Arm (except, depending how you split hairs, the Pi) are blobs. If Fedora isn't officially admitting the otherwise pretty darned good Nvidia drivers exist I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for support for the craptastic stuff that passes for an embedded video driver. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test

That's not the point does it have a usable 3D driver? The Fedora 21 userspace should be able to run gnome with a freedreno device. Last time I've checked in was few months ago with Fedora 20 and mesa 10.2 (was mesa master as that time). Tested on ifc6410, but It was with a downstream 3.4 kernel. I'm using a tegra device daily as graphical travel workstation (on lxde at least) Still the opentegra FOSS (yet 2D only) driver isn't in fedora: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1122713 Any reviewer welcomed. (this driver can rely on a vanilla fedora kernel) Thx -- - Nicolas (kwizart) -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
