And make sure that you use proper libUMP.so. I compiled it from sources.

Hi all,
just to let you know that I suceeded to let it work by disablig GLX/AIGLX in X11
In /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Section "Device"
      Identifier    "Allwinner A10/A13 FBDEV"
      Driver       "fbturbo"
      Option       "fbdev" "/dev/fb0"

      Option       "SwapbuffersWait" "true"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
      Identifier    "My Screen"
      Device       "fbturbo device"
      Monitor       "My Monitor"
EndSection

Section "DRI"
      Mode 0666
EndSection

Is there a premade image, that has the gpu driver and fbturbo configured ?

Anyone ?

Yes
I will release Hamburger PI with full sources on Facebook in one month!
Sorry, was only a joke.

Build it yourself, at least you learn something!

Thanks for the suggestion but the lines are already in my script.hex...

This error is 100% due to the fact that the driver does not find [mali_param] in script.bin! So again, check and create the new script.bin

I made one only for oficial Lubuntu 1404 0.9.0/ And it worked well

GPU modules for Lubuntu 1404 0.9.0

It would be great if someone actually build a whole Ubuntu or Lubuntu around those fixes. So novice users can enjoy this too.

Or maybe just a shell scrip, that installs everything.

In fact, this already exist!

If you install plain Loboris Vivid + desktop of your choice and then download the GPU tutorial pack from the instructions thread (click here) in this forum you will succeed. No compiling necessary, all the work is already done and you will find the step by step instructions in the gpupack file. If I can do it, you should be able to do it too!

It includes Mali400 acceleration and fbturbo driver.

I get two errors like below. Any fix?

Error: Requested MapBuffer VBO update method but GL_OES_mapbuffer is not supported!
Error: SceneTerrain requires Vertex Texture Fetch support, but GL_MAX_VERTEX_TEXTURE_IMAGE_UNITS is 0

Used this setting below.

The same error on another devices with testing glmark2, and may be this function (https://www.khronos.org/registry ... S/OES_mapbuffer.txt) not implemented in blob

I think this question to mali arm.
