Hi Robert. I have the same problem with the drivers.
There is no way to boot with instructions on the wiki beaglebonedebian - sgx. I tested with different kernel 4.1 and headers, and when I run the test to see if you boot the pvr module, gives no signal at the terminal. There is a correct guide for installing the graphics driver for BEAGLEBONE black ?. Can someone put the steps please. It would be a great help.
