I will tell only after you explain why you think you would need 'mali driver'. What do you expect to happen after you're able to use this Mali thingie?

BPi M64 and Pine64 share the same SoC, right ?

There was this question already

Unless you want 3D opengl ES accelaration, you don't need mali driver.

[Dariush]

Yes, i need it for OpenGL ES2.0 hardware accelaration.

Actually, for multimedia and other related stuffs in Qt5.

[hojnikb]

if by multimedia you mean video decoding, then mali isn't the thing you're after (again, only does 3d, no 2d) but rather cedarX, which does video decoding in allwinner chips.

When the OPENGL ES2.0 is ok, the following example works smoothly; however, without that and with mesa, the program does not play movies.
