RE: Help with HW Acceleration - longsleep - 07-03-2016
A device tree source with working framebuffer on HDMI we would be a start. Or any image Android or whatever with working sunxi_drm HDMI driver might be helpful.

A working X11 2D/3D accelleration-blob is sorely missed.
I have meet up with Allwinner folks two days ago, overall is a good meeting. I am bridging up Allwinner and Sunxi community and there will be more collaboration and turns into fruitful result for Pine64 community.
Back in Mali topic, Allwinner already make the first release and I aware that still not usable. If somebody able to provide me a clear issues and requests, I will translate and provide back to engineer.
P/S: I am not a Linux software guru.
Dear tllim,
Thank you. I am encouraged by your report. I hope the negotiations continue well.
Thanks for all you do !

longsleep still get nada in terms of the mali branch.
The question is what was used by AllWinner to get this to work successfully? Which BSP version or is it something that is yet to be released?
Almost tempted to take the last untouched BS v2 and try it there then do a comparison between longsleep tree and bsp v2 tree.

That's from longsleep's kernel additions
Off to test what will happen with Pure BSP v2
RE: Help with HW Acceleration - janeku - 07-06-2016
I do not understand so much what is wrong with Allwiner and their drivers but someone explain me about this link on their page and download link to drivers ? Mali driver 64bit is interesting information but : did someone test it, already been implemented in existing kernels, issues with copyrights, something else ?
I jus can not believe that : everything is stuck becaue of © activities or missing driver informations or missing data about Mali graphic chip ?
RE: Help with HW Acceleration - MarkHaysHarris777 - 07-06-2016
They're having trouble merging it with the kernel img; there is little documentation, and the coding might be sketchy...
... a couple of very sharp cookies are working on it.

Clean target is broken but not required.
RE: Help with HW Acceleration - lenny.raposo-pine64.pro - 07-07-2016
Ok will proceed and see what happens on the flipside the same thing happens with the stock BSP too so will try there too.
RE: Help with HW Acceleration - lenny.raposo-pine64.pro - 07-07-2016
longsleep's mali experiment built
will be testing today
RE: Help with HW Acceleration - janeku - 07-07-2016
I'll keep my fingers crossed
