Perhaps there is still time left to notify Freescale how critical this
feature is for several people. Imagine tearing on huge displays for
example ... this can easily become a showstopper. Freescale should
consider this one of the most critical features to introduce in 3.10.31 GA.

Thanks Daiane - will do.
When is the next such meeting and who is actually the interface with Vivante
that could put some pressure on them!?
DRI2 is used all over in the X11 code according to this so I think this is a
critical area to solve the serious shortcomings and performance in the current
X11 port on the I.MX6. See: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DRI2 for more
details.

On X.11 and Chromium there is still "tearing" of videos played back in
Chromium (on X11). From what I have read and been told by others this is
caused by the lack of DRI2 support in the Vivante graphics libraries (even
in the latest V5.x libraries included in the latest
fsl-yocto-3.10.31-1.1.0_beta BSP).
Is there any hope of Vivante implementing DRI2 soon or some other way to
implement vblank-synchronized rendering ("vsync") on the i.MX6 so that
Chrome/Chromium can playback videos without this serious "tearing" problem?
How do we convince Vivante to give this a high priority!?
This is a interesting topic, and i think there is room for a healthy
discussion in our next community meeting. Please, keep a list of
issues and suggest it when the next agenda is published.
for now, let´s wait if someone else has some word on this thread.
