moment.
According to that web-page, there shouldn't need to be anything
Allwinner-specific anyway, right (other than adding the GPU nodes to
the relevant DTS)?
The talk in the video explained that right now packages have to be
SoC-specific (and there may even be some allwinner-specific code that is
required, but not necessarily available).
I don't remember all the details, however, and the talk explains them
better than I could (sorry for the lack of text-based references).
no problem elena - i tracked it down:
http://linux-sunxi.org/Mali400#Binary_driver
two variants / sets of instructions:
http://linux-sunxi.org/Mali_binary_driver
http://free-electrons.com/blog/mali-opengl-support-on-allwinner-platforms-with-mainline-linux/
those are proprietary drivers so they will most definitely *NOT* be
going onto the RYF-Certified EOMA68-A20 Cards. btw that reminds me,
does anyone know the progress of the guy working for AMD who in his
spare time is implementing MALI400 OpenGL compatible entirely libre
drivers? he's *referencing* libv's work but is reimplementing the
library from scratch. he... maay run into difficulties as MALI400 is
so basic it requires significant parts to be done in software
(CPU-side).
Mesa kmscube demo is running, though some/many components are still
missing to call it complete.
He announced the status of his project just recently:
