As you may have seen in my other posts, I am tinkering with Gnome in PMOS/Alpine.
Originally, I installed Gnome alongside Phosh and started it from Terminal. Although all individual screen elements were rather small, this produced a near perfect screen layout (for me at least).
I am now trying to build an image from scratch that I may be able to share. However, deleting Phosh and booting right into Gnome has messed up the video driver.
Checking under Settings/Details/About gives me "Graphics unknown" whereas my old setup says "Graphics Mali400".
I found some interesting info about the Mali400 hardware here:
https://wiki.debian.org/MaliGraphics
And, checking both my installations, I found a file called mali-dp.ko in
/pmOS_root/lib/modules/5.5.0/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/arm
The problem seems to be that this driver was deactivated when I deleted Phosh.
How can I get it back to run?
Many thanks for your help.
