[directfb-users] iMX6 Vivante gfx for directfb ?

[Thierry Bultel]

Hi,

I would like to get hardware acceleration on the iMX6q, that has a
Vivante GPU.

Browsing the web did not bring me much information about that.
VivanteCorp say they support DirectFB , but I cannot find any other
relevant stuff,
and on the Freescale community neither.

Is this (or about to be) supported ?

Also, I am a bit puzzled about XDirectFb. Is this still available ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Regards
Thierry

We've got our hands on such a platform, but are still looking for funding to do the porting work.

Also, I am a bit puzzled about XDirectFb. Is this still available ?

The last version I tested was from January 2012.

Where did you get it from ? It does not seem to be built from directfb
soures.

Thanks
