Hi,
on the startpage on openpandora.org it says that the pandora has a ARM NEON FPU.
To use this unit the OS and all the software need to have a build with the "hard floating point" gcc-flag.
The problem is, that you cannot mix up hard-float software with soft-float software.
The binary SGX-Driver was build with "soft-float"
so only binary 3d-acceleration OR the neon co-processor can be used. We all know, 3d-acceleration is working, so the co-processor cannot be used.
why is openpandora.org attracting possible buyer with the availability of the co-processor which is unusable (with the default distro) ?
Or maybe i'm wrong?
thx
