| 17:53 | bkeys> | Does anyone here please know of a guide to get a hardware accelerated setup on the cubox with linux? |
| 18:01 | bkeys> | Someone pls have pity on me |
| 18:15 | Ke> | which cubox? |
| 18:16 | bkeys> | It's the better one of the imx6 based ones |
| 18:16 | bkeys> | I think the i4x4 |
| 18:16 | bkeys> | It has 4 gigs of RAM |
| 18:20 | bkeys> | Ke: Yep it's the CuBox-i 4×4 |
| 18:21 | Ke> | in case noone helps you, you can disable glamoregl like this https://users.aalto.fi/~jkarlson/files/00-noglamoregl.conf |
| 18:22 | bkeys> | What distro are you running on your cubox? |
| 18:22 | Ke> | I don't have one |
| 18:22 | bkeys> | I see, I'd like to have hardware acceleration on this thing |
| 18:22 | bkeys> | I got Fedora (my preferred distro) working on it, but I get this error |
| 18:22 | Ke> | I hear there are even moderately reasonable open source drivers for it |

| 18:23 | bkeys> | [ 1331.148] (EE) AIGLX error: imx-drm does not export required DRI extension |
| 18:23 | bkeys> | [ 1331.148] (EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering |
| 18:23 | bkeys> | That is the only error in those logs |
| 18:23 | bkeys> | Which I don't know why falling back to CPU rendering would cause X to not start |
| 18:23 | bkeys> | But it also loads the GPU driver just fine |
| 18:24 | Ke> | [ 1331.941] (II) Server terminated successfully (0). Closing log file. |
| 18:24 | bkeys> | Yeah I have no clue |
| 18:24 | Ke> | sounds more like you are not running any session with Xorg so it sees there is nothing to do |
| 18:24 | bkeys> | I only have basic X11 and openbox installed |
| 18:25 | bkeys> | I see |
| 18:25 | Ke> | which happens to some people |
| 18:25 | bkeys> | Let me try to install a display manager and start it up with systemd |
| 18:25 | Ke> | how are you starting X |
| 18:25 | bkeys> | startx |
| 18:25 | Ke> | yes display managers are easier nowadays |
| 18:25 | bkeys> | I was trying to get openbox going before doing anything else |
| 18:26 | Ke> | I believe you might needs xinitrc or xsession to do that |
| 18:45 | bkeys> | You would think that is a dependency, but I'm installing SDDM and seeing if I can start it with systemd |
| 18:55 | bkeys> | It hangs at starting up sddm like it always does |
| 18:56 | bkeys> | systemctl status sddm shows no issues |
| 18:56 | bkeys | 18:56 * bkeys sighs |
| 18:58 | bkeys> | Hmm, new error though |
| 18:59 | bkeys> | https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/xVK7Rp~1QfEoZ1kiFHZOYw |
| 18:59 | bkeys> | Something about present flip failed |
| 19:16 | bkeys> | I'm gonna try to install xfce4 and see if it works |
