Error: Adding chromium browser + fsl-image-gui (Yocto - Dora)

Error: Adding chromium browser + fsl-image-gui (Yocto - Dora)

[Benuvel GnanaKirubakaran, Jv.]

Hi All,

Bitbaking fsl-image-gui of Yocto-dora was successfully built and
desktop appeared at HDMI also we can utilize all the privileges which
are available in it.

Now we desired to add chromium browser, for which, following changes
were did with the earlier successful one:

1. build/conf/bblayers.conf:
BBLAYERS += " ${BSPDIR}/sources/meta-browser "

2. build/conf/local.conf:
CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL += "chromium"
LICENSE_FLAGS_WHITELIST="commercial"

3. .repo/manifest.xml
<remote fetch="git://github.com/OSSystems" name="OSSystems"/>
<project remote="OSSystems"
revision="fc3969f63bda343c38c40a23f746c560c4735f3e"
name="meta-browser" path="sources/meta-browser" />

After repo sync, fsl-image-gui was built. But while after parsing
recipes, it throws error as below:

Add meta-gnome and meta-ruby layers. Then add LICENSE_FLAGS_WHITELIST to
have x264/libav enabled, chromium depends on them.

Also be sure to have at least 32GB of RAM on your build machine, I already
tried to build chromium on 8GB+4GB swap and on 16GB+8GB swap machines
without success, it fails at LINK stage with oom-killer being invoked.

Hi All,

We are able to integrate and build yocto(dora) with chromium browser, but 
hardware acceleration seems to be not working.

Could not play video from youtube.com, following procedure was referred to 
export WebGL libraries;  which we assume is required for enabling hardware 
acceleration.

- To enable rendering of WebGL do the following steps after boot.  Add the 
following lines to  /etc/profile or /usr/bin/google-chrome
export 
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libGAL.so:/usr/lib/libEGL.so:/usr/lib/libGLSLC.so:/usr/lib/libCLC.so:/usr/lib/libGLESv2.so

- Start the Chromium browser
$google-chrome --use-gl=egl

(http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/meta-fsl-bsp-release.git/tree/imx/README?h=dora_3.10.17-1.0.0_beta)

After loading youtube.com browser shows an option to install adobe flash 
player, since it is for X86 machines we were not able to use it.

Please provide your suggestion on how to enable browser(chromium) to use 
hardware acceleration.

In the same project we have to change the screen mode from landscape to 
portrait.  Please let us know is there any configuration file or settings 
through which we can change the mode ?


Regards,
Somashekar

CHromiums is using ffmpeg which is not hardware accelerated with our VPU so video played in youtube on chromium will not be hardware accelerated.

We do not support adobe flash player any more so this is not supported on this platform.

I submitted patches to meta-browser that add a packageconfig for 
component builds. With them, it becomes possible to build even with 8 GB 
RAM (though swap will be used, and the disk cache will not work optimally).

Note that the recipes in meta-browser now contain packageconfigs to 
enable EGL support. You don't need to pass this parameter then.
