Hi Luke On the topic of GPU's have you seen this? https://github.com/etnaviv/etna_viv
yeahyeah i have.
Seems to be a libre driver for Vivante GPU's
it is. the problem with vivante is that their *own* proprietary driver is so shit that the entire reputation of vivante's technology has been shot to shit.
i spoke with one fabless semiconductor company, urging them to use etnaviv: unfortunately my contact used the word "vivante" when talking to the engineer, who told my contact "it's shit. it keeps crashing. so we won't use it".
whoopsie...
