AlmaLinux
'v3d' Driver on 9.2!
Hello there, I have tried "https://repo.almalinux.org/rpi/9/images/AlmaLinux-9-RaspberryPi-GNOME-latest.aarch64.raw.xz" on Raspberry Pi 4, first thing, I have updated to 9.2, then I have checked the GUI, it's very sluggish, I've checked the driver and it's showing that "llvmpipe", which seems the system couldn't recognize the other one, by the way in "config.txt" this line "dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d" is there. What am I missing to get the system GPU hardware acceleration supported?
Thank you.
It seems that vc4 and v3d are disabled in mesa. Could this be the cause? I don't have the hardware to test though. https://git.almalinux.org/rpms/mesa/src/branch/c9/SPECS/mesa.spec#L26-L27
Thank you @pastalian for pointing that out. In the logs of https://git.almalinux.org/rpms/mesa/src/branch/c9/SPECS/mesa.spec:
* Fri Mar 26 2021 Adam Jackson <[email protected]> - 21.0.1-3
- Split out with_r300 and with_r600
- Disable r300, r600, etnaviv, lima, vc4 and v3d in RHEL
Which was enabled before, but from 21.0.1-3 release it disabled. Maybe we can get Fedora Mesa as an example: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/mesa/blob/rawhide/f/mesa.spec I can test on RPi4-5 Thank you.
Try this if you would like to try it locally: https://build.almalinux.org/build/14861
Thank you @metalefty I want to test it on RPi5, should I just download the packages and install them manually? or if there is something similar to Fedora "sudo dnf upgrade --enablerepo=updates-testing --refresh --advisory=FEDORA-2022-fff66108a5" in Almalinux? Thank you.
The packages are now released officially. Just do dnf update then you will grab the driver.
I've just updated, it's really really fast.
Thank you so much @pastalian for discovering the issue.
Thank you @metalefty For your all your work.
