ArchLinuxARM-armv7 pack was not built in Mali module?

Postby Willpower » Sat Jun 27, 2015 4:32 am

Hi, I've started with A20-Olinuxino-Micro and officially pack at http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv7 ... xino-micro.
I tried to build GUI with 2D, 3D hardware accelerator, but it seem the default kernel was not built in mali, ump, drm module.
I want to ask are there any solution to add the driver without re-compiling the kernel and modules?
I also have modules for 3.4 kernel, Arch Linux kernel is 4.1
Regard,
Willpower

Since I'm kind of having the same question: Did you find any solution?

To get the linux-sunxi kernel running was a bit of work. I followed the tutorials at the linux-sunxi wiki. The basic steps were:

I hope I got all the steps. It was quite a mess with a lot of trial+error...
