Do i need Graphics SDK for AM57xx?
As per this link ( processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Graphics_SDK_Quick_installation_and_user_guide ) there is no need for Graphics SDK as per my understanding. please correct me if i am wrong.

thanks for your support

You do not need Graphics SDK to build kmscube. You can build it through Arago build. Follow this wiki page -
processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Processor_SDK_Building_The_SDK

After the setup is done, use kmscube recipe to build the project as shown below.
ARAGO_BRAND=processor-sdk MACHINE=am57xx-evm bitbake kmscube

I already have the SDK (ti-processor-sdk-linux-am57xx-evm-03.03.00.04) then still i need to go for yocto setup or i can compile kmscube using SDK?

kmscube isn't supported by PLSDK so there might be some dependency not part of PLSDK build. Please try it with Yocto setup and after successful build there, check for all the dependency on yocto setup and copy to PLSDK in case you want to build it with SDK only.

my yocto setup is done for AM57xx.
Now,I tried to do google for sample programs of Opengl and i got many links one of them is :
(www.opengl.org/.../abgr.c )

but every link will use GLUT/GLEW/SDL library however my yocto setup dont have this library. can you guide me how can i add this library in my yocto setup or it will be helpful if you will provide me an example that will not use any library (GLUT/GLEW/SDL).

Thanks for your support
