| zzarr | hello! | 07:23 |
|---|---|---|
| RAOF | Hi! | 07:23 |
| zzarr | now I'm here again, new thoughts and ideas how to possibly solve my problem | 07:23 |
| zzarr | Mir on ASUS Chromebook Flip that is | 07:24 |
| zzarr | I know this is a hypothetical question or a theoretical maybe, but do you think I will be able to use the binary blob with libhybris now when Google enables Android apps on Chromebooks? | 07:27 |
| RAOF | Possibly? | 07:27 |
| zzarr | (not just a few apps, all of them) | 07:27 |
| RAOF | It depends on how they do their EGL layer. | 07:28 |
| zzarr | I know that it has a lot to do with how they solve the rendering | 07:28 |
| RAOF | They may well not expose HWC, which would mean “no”. | 07:28 |
| zzarr | RAOF, what is EGL? | 07:28 |
| RAOF | The cross-platform bind-a-GLish-API-to-a-native-window API. | 07:29 |
| RAOF | The abstraction of GLX, WGL, AGL, etc. | 07:29 |
| zzarr | okey, I'm a bit lost, I confess but I do have a clue | 07:30 |
| zzarr | I have a feeling that is the way they may solve it | 07:31 |
| RAOF | They probably *won't* expose HWC (which we need), because that's only needed for implementing SurfaceFlinger, and isn't exposed to Android apps AFAIK. | 07:33 |
| RAOF | What doesn't work on the Chromebook Flip, by the way? | 07:33 |
| zzarr | RAOF,could you specify "doesn't work"? | 07:35 |
| RAOF | What are you trying to do, and what's preventing you from doing it? | 07:36 |
| zzarr | RAOF, I wish to run an GPU accelerated Mir/Unity8 but it's not possible | 07:37 |
| RAOF | Why not? | 07:38 |
| zzarr | no drivers | 07:39 |
| RAOF | What GPU does it have? | 07:39 |
| zzarr | it's powered by a Rockchip RK3288 which have a Mali 764 | 07:39 |
| zzarr | there are drivers for Android and for X11 | 07:40 |
| zzarr | it's a bit sad, the Chromebook flip and Unity8's ability to change between desktop and tablet GUI is as made for each other | 07:45 |
| RAOF | If there are already drivers for android, why can't you use those? | 07:45 |
| zzarr | don't they require me to build the kernel for android? | 07:48 |
| RAOF | Yes. | 07:48 |
| zzarr | how do I do that? | 07:49 |
| RAOF | The Android OSP should have docs on that. | 07:49 |
| RAOF | I've not done it myself. | 07:49 |
| zzarr | okey, do you know if I can keep the rest of the drivers or if I need drivers for the touch, wifi, bluetooth and so on? | 07:50 |
| RAOF | You'll probably need android-userspace drivers for some of that. | 07:51 |
| RAOF | Hm, or maybe not. | 07:51 |
| RAOF | I'd expect touch, wifi, and bluetooth to all be kernel-only and happy with Ubuntu userspace. | 07:52 |
| zzarr | as it is now they work with Ubuntu | 07:52 |
| zzarr | RAOF, do you know how to configure the lid? (closed, open or over 180 degrees) | 07:57 |
| RAOF | No, sorry. | 07:58 |
| zzarr | okey | 07:58 |

| greyback | hey folks, in mesa, there is the big egl-platform-mir patch. But I don't see it actually creating a Mir platform, along side the GBM/X11/Wayland platforms. | 11:50 |
| greyback | e.g. there is no EGL_EXT_platform_mir | 11:50 |

| anpok | greyback: yes. As far as I know support for such an extension does not exist yet. | 12:22 |
