A few more updates are out, this time libdrm, Mesa and the associated
dependencies. These were required to facilitate building the Exynos
armsoc accelerated Xorg drivers.
Note that SoC specific packages such as drivers will deviate from the
base armv5tel arch where appropriate without causing build issues.
Nvidia Tegra kernel and binary driver packages will be armv7l (hopefully
available over the weekend unless I run into unforeseen issues - I have
the kernel rpm but not yet tested).
I have the Samsung Exynos Xorg driver (xorg-x11-drv-armsoc) built, but
unfortunately it causes the machine to lock up. Probably a bad
interraction between the ChromeOS kernel and the open source driver.
ChromeOS uses a closed source hard-float binary driver.
If you have a Chromebook and you want to play with the driver to try to
get it to work, the upstream git is here:
http://git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=arm/xorg/driver/xf86-video-armsoc.git
The rpms are in:
http://ftp.redsleeve.org/pub/misc/xorg-x11-drv-armsoc-*
Given the increased flow of updates of late, I have separated out the
updates repository to keep the repository metadata rebuild times reasonable.
The updates repo file is here:
http://ftp.redsleeve.org/pub/yum/updates.repo
This should be getting through to the mirrors shortly, but if you have a
need for the updated packages sooner swap the commented and live baseurl
lines.
