I didn't think about generic modesetting driver for Xserver. And that indeed works. This is my xorg.conf: ----------------------->8---------------------- # cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf Section "Device" Identifier "Driver0" Screen 0 Driver "modesetting" Option "kmsdev" "/dev/dri/card1" EndSection ----------------------->8---------------------- I do see xclock is rendered fine. Now I guess is getting closer to what I really need :) In the end I wanted to get 3D rendered by Vivante GPU to be displayed on UDL. My assumption was very simple - if IMX-DRM+Etnaviv work fine it should be straight-forward to swap IMX-DRM bitstreamer with UDL and we're golden. That might be more a question to Lucas now. I use xorg.conf as found here: http://git.arm.linux.org.uk/cgit/xf86-video-armada.git/tree/conf/xorg-sample.conf?h=unstable-devel That's what it has: ----------------------->8---------------------- Section "Device" Identifier "Driver0" Screen 0 Driver "armada" # Support hotplugging displays? # Option "Hotplug" "TRUE" # Support hardware cursor if available? # Option "HWCursor" "TRUE" # Use GPU acceleration? # Option "UseGPU" "TRUE" # Provide Xv interfaces? # Option "XvAccel" "TRUE" # Prefer overlay for Xv (TRUE for armada-drm, FALSE for imx-drm) # Option "XvPreferOverlay" "TRUE" # Which accelerator module to load (automatically found if commented out) # Option "AccelModule" "etnadrm_gpu" # Option "AccelModule" "etnaviv_gpu" # Support DRI2 interfaces? # Option "DRI" "TRUE" EndSection ----------------------->8---------------------- Indeed I uncommented all the lines and then it allows to see for example glmark2-es2 working on Wandboard (that's exactly where "imx-drm + etnaviv" combo is used). But if I swap "imx-drm" to "udl" I don't see anything on my screen (connected via UDL) even though Xserver seems to really start claiming the screen (so I see it becomes black, effectively overriding whatever was there before) and glmark benchmark prints results. Maybe I'm missing some additional glue for UDL in "xf86-video-armada" except the simple one: ----------------------->8---------------------- --- a/src/armada_module.c +++ b/src/armada_module.c @@ -26,7 +26,7 @@ #define ARMADA_NAME "armada" #define ARMADA_DRIVER_NAME "armada" -#define DRM_MODULE_NAMES "armada-drm", "imx-drm" +#define DRM_MODULE_NAMES "armada-drm", "imx-drm", "udl" #define DRM_DEFAULT_BUS_ID NULL static const char *drm_module_names[] = { DRM_MODULE_NAMES }; @@ -43,6 +43,11 @@ static SymTabRec ipu_chipsets[] = { { -1, NULL } }; +static SymTabRec udl_chipsets[] = { + { 0, "UDL" }, + { -1, NULL } +}; + static const OptionInfoRec * const options[] = { armada_drm_options, common_drm_options, @@ -115,6 +120,8 @@ static void armada_identify(int flags) armada_chipsets); xf86PrintChipsets(ARMADA_NAME, "Support for Freescale IPU", ipu_chipsets); + xf86PrintChipsets(ARMADA_NAME, "Support DisplayLink USB2.0", + udl_chipsets); } ----------------------->8---------------------- -Alexey _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
