I went through the #1426, and nothing from here was needed for pure EGL KMS case - I use Qt6. I had the same issue on Qt6 and #1426 helped me to solve that issue.

The only thing was needed from #1426 was Mesa update (I based on the description from the issue). Another thing is that there is PR !1395 which bumps Mesa above 24.2.8 mentioned in the #1426. Question is if !1395 fixes the rendering issues or not.

Things which I was not needed:

  • https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/computers/config_txt.html#disable_fw_kms_setup says that for RPI5 the disable_fw_kms_setup is default 1
  • max_framebuffers is legacy option - even used?
  • VC4DTBO ?= "vc4-kms-v3d-pi5" not needed for me.

@vermaete please rebase it on latest master and push again.

Similar to @marcinkowskip I needed a mesa update - but in my case only for cm5 with I/O board. I did, however, need the xorg.conf.d snippet.

I did not need the other suggested changes with either a pi5 or cm5 with I/O board.
