OpenGL ES 2.0 support under DSS2 kernel?

OpenGL ES 2.0 support under DSS2 kernel?

[david.hagood]

Does anybody have any pointers on getting the kernel driver for the
PowerVR OpenGL ES2.0 hardware working under the current Linux kernel with
the DSS2 patches?

I am trying to get accelerated X working in order to test if it will be
able to do what I need to do.

Currently the Xsgx X server won't work, as the drivers for the PowerVR
graphics acceleration are missing from the DSS2 kernel, so that leaves me
dead in the water.

Just to be clear: I am *not* talking about power management, I am talking
about the PowerVR graphic accelerator core for OpenGL support (yes, I am
repeating my self redundantly, but I have had some people contact me who I
think are confusing the two).

Take a look at the OpenEmbedded kernel for Beagleboard. It has working  
PowerVR drivers for recent kernel.
