Thanks, Isle,

I could u-boot, kernel compile(4.4), make root file system.

Would you also upload two files to github for “firefly-reload” user?

  1. rk3288-firefly_reload_linux_defconfig for reload
  2. rk3288-filrefly_reload.dtsi for reload

I hope to see CAMERA(MIPI or DVP) driver and HDMI-IN(TC358743) driver as well.

Thanks.

Hi
1 we haven’t support reload board yet,
2 we are working on the camera support.

Is there any way to get the VAAPI support working with Chromium? Also, why is there a reference to a server on your local network in /etc/apt/apt.conf so apt doesn’t work?

Hi wouter
1 I don’t know whether the VAAPI can use be uesd in chromuim or not . but I will have a try later.
2 Yes ,please remove /etc/apt/apt.conf,that is my fault . I should delete it when the firmware was build .
we build a proxy server to accelerate the speed when we use the “apt” command.

Hi,

I flashed this image, and the OpenGL works, but I can’t get Wifi working - is there any image that has working wifi and OpenGL? I can’t seem to find any.

hi ssieber:
which board did you used? the wifi is working good on our board.

I use the firefly-rk3288.

To clarify, I was wondering if there’s an image that has both Wifi and OpenGL working without needing to recompile a kernel or fiddle with drivers. The wifi seemed broken in this image.

Hi ssieber
this firmware is . I don’t know why the wifi can’t work in your board. But it is indeed work fine on my firefly board.
