Hi all,
Maybe you've played with this already.. But if not, looks like the beagle-x15 folks got etnaviv acceleration working with some extra patches against mainline kernel:

That's the drivers/gpu/drm/etnaviv driver, known as BB2D in the TRM. No idea about the frame rates, but might be an acceptable open source solution for accelerated video for pyra. I think it's the same setup on 5432.
Yep, it should work on OMAP5 too.
OK cool.
Julien has been working on a new X driver for etnaviv, with DRI3 support: https://github.com/julbouln/xf86-video-armsoc-omap5
I've written a DRI3 backend for the SGX driver, which works with Julien's driver.
But all that is still in quite alpha-state.
Oh OK I did not know SGX is somehow involved too. Is the plan to use them both at the same time?
Personally I was hoping to avoid any SGX binaries and still have usable graphics with etnaviv as SGX binaries are dependant on specific kernel versions..
