schnapper79 Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 Hello Igor, thanks for your work. On your Github-page for Kernel 4.2.0 you say you tested this kernel with chromium egl. Which was your setup? (Did you build your own chromium? which distro did you use?.....) regards Florian

schnapper79 Posted September 29, 2015 Author Posted September 29, 2015 hello Franky, thanks for your answer. Actually i allready knew that and tested it with the udoobuntu 2 beta and its working fine. My question was: how did that test happen that's mentioned on the github-page of the kernel? was it the udoobuntu with a new kernel? or where was this compilation of chromium from? Debian has no chromium for armhf and i am not sure if the official chromium in ubuntu has the egl drivers.
Igor Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 It should also be possible with Armbian ... I am not building Chromium since it's very troublesome and not possible to build the latest build. Udoo's is build on this: https://github.com/Freescale/chromium-imx So, if you want egl, you need to install the one from Udoo's repository. repository.udoo.org If you are o-k with the version without egl you can use this: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/%2Bsource/chromium-browser It's also for arm. Note that it doesn't work under root user.
