TDA4VM: Need help for libopengl

Part Number: TDA4VM

Hi experts

We are using TDA4 kernel linux 5.10.41 and sdk version is 8.2.

our customer wants to use glew, gtsam libs, and libs such as libopengl-dev. 

But now the sdk has no openGL libs, is it possible to get them from TI? How can I make a suitable opengl lib for them?

Looking forward to your answer,

thanks.

  • Hi,

    I am looping in our graphics expert. We will get back to you in a couple of days.

  • Hello,

    We don't support OpenGL in our SDK 8.x. Actually, our GPU only supports OpenGLES.

    Are you looking for OpenGL specifically to enable these other frameworks (GLEW, GTSAM, libopengl-dev)?

    Regards,

    Erick

  • Yes, we are trying to put glew libs into TDA4, but this lib does not support GLES. I will try with cross-compile to see what happens. I found that there should be Mesa and X11 libs as its dependencies. 

    Do you mean that the GPU only supports OpenGLES?

    I don't think this will work. It might compile because the dependencies can be added, but the underlying driver support won't be available and it will fall back to software rasterization, which won't be accelerated by the GPU.

    Do you mean that the GPU only supports OpenGLES? 

    Yes, it only supports OpenGLES. OpenGL support would be possible with Zink, which uses Vulkan to emulate OpenGL support, but this is not supported currently in our SDK, and it would not get support for older SDKs.
