Looking for the Mali support... - rondoor - 10-05-2017

Recently, I know there is a way to enable Mali-400 support from here.
https://github.com/ayufan-pine64/linux-build/releases

I did same things as the introduction said, such as installing xserver-xorg-video-armsoc-sunxi and libmali-sunxi-utgard0-r6p0, Updating a kernel, a u-boot and packages. And I executed the script by typing pine64_enable_sunxidrm.sh . Then, it told me to reboot my pinebook. After rebooting, I checked whether the Mali works correctly or not by glmark2. Unfortunately, it said..
GL_VENDOR:     VMware, Inc.

GL_RENDERER:   Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.8, 128 bits)
GL_VERSION:    3.0 Mesa 12.0.6
I thought this meant I failed to enable it. So I tried many times but the results are always same . Sad

How can I enable it? And, did you success to have the Mali work on your pinebook?

I need your advice. And I apologize for my poor english.

I think this is correct.
Also have the sunxidrm driver in use here and inxi shows me the same Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe.
