Surface Error When Running Magic Lantern Demo On Beaglebone Black

Nick Apperley

When running the Magic Lantern demo locally on the Beaglebone Black some error messages appear like the following:

Can't open keypad input device (/dev/input/event0)
PVRShell: EGL 1.4 initialized
Exit message has been set to: "PVRShell: Unable to create surface
".
InitAPI failed!
PVRShell: Unable to create surface

The Beaglebone Black is running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS with the SGX driver (ver 5.1.0).

Actually that isn't correct. The AM3559 SoC (a TI product) contains a SGX530 GPU. TI SGX Graphics SDK is used to provide a driver and other software for the GPU. This forum provides official support for the use of the TI SGX Graphics SDK.
