Mali GPU driver

Hi guys
I'm trying to use Midori browser on OPI2 with GPU support. I've already built the latest midori version and it works.
But it looks like it doesn't support hardware acceleration. How can I build it with GPU support?

Does midori work for you without crashing ?

For me, all webkit based browser crash eventually (sometimes instantly, sometimes after a while).

No, it doesn't crashing, but it freeze all the time after few minutes or right after the start

I will answer to my question myself

I installed ubuntu 15.04 and enabled mali drivers. videos are working with smplayer. resolution is fine but there is some hang. anybody have any recommendation?

thanks

So...
Does this mean programs that need hw acceleration, like kodi, should work now?

tgenc · Published in 2016-3-21 23:15:49

I am not sure. just trying smplayer on ubuntu 15.04.
should do something else?
