The Lima driver project was intended for that,... But there is little to no activity on it.
Again, I'm no expert but is this not an open source driver? : http://malideveloper.arm.com/resources/d...l-drivers/
This is the kernel driver; you need a userspace binary blob to do most magic ...

What you want is the Lima project to get forked, or to get on steroids or something
Cheers for clarification waldo.
some of the more technologically apt people have gotten the Mali driver to work. You need to switch over to the drm kernel tho ... which I've had some problems with (glitches, poor performance, etc)

lol... yeah, I was just about to point out after looking at that page the warning buried in the middle of the page... "
Note that these components are not a complete driver stack"... meaning it is a step in the right direction. but still means there is a leap to be made from closed-source mali to open-source. It would be nice to see the Lima project liven up thou... it seems to have gone the way of the nullsoft llama though!
