Title: Board Support Package
Post by: Da_Blitz on February 16, 2007, 05:20:14 am
just looked at the hardware support package they ship on thier site

http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/p...143297336425774 (http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=CWB-IMX31-ADS-LTIB&parentCode=i.MX31&nodeId=0162468rH31143297336425774)

anyway they mention openglES support. however they mention it in the kernel section so i am wondering if thet means we will get mesa opengl acceleration or the stuff they ship. ie did they write the interface or the full stack

anyway. it looks like the hardware support is there and i have seen them submit patches to the mainline kernel.

Each and every patch has been rejected, so it doesn't buy us much.

are you talking about those patches specifically or the pataches they submit to mainline?

The ones they submitted. Lennert Buytenhek and Sacha Hauer are working on i.mx31 without freescale, so mainline might get i.mx31 support without freescales patches. See the recent threads on L-A-K
