Beaglebone's graphic card drivers installation with Yocto

379 Views Asked by At

Beaglebone Black integrates Imagination's GPU PowerVR SGX530 which supports OpenGL|ES 2.0 (source) and this is why I want to use qeglfs platform for the Qt5 to display my application's window on the display.

I found the Yocto repository meta-ti which includes recipes for userspace libraries (source) and kernel drivers (source) for SGX530. Unfortunately both recipes have a line:

COMPATIBLE_MACHINE = "ti33x|ti43x|omap-a15|k3"

Is there any chance to use these recipes on Beagleboard Black? My project uses machine:

MACHINE ?= beaglebone-yocto

which is defined in the repository poky (source).
