X11 / Wayland Driver Mali G72 mp12 GPU

I sent an email today to Le-Maker asking them for the Mali G72 MP12 GPU Drivers.
The X11 and Wayland Drivers to be specific.

The x11 and wayland driver can not be built without the ARM MALI DDK.
The DDK is only provided to the vendors.

Maybe the rest of you should email LeMaker as well and ask for the driver.
If enough people are asking for it maybe they will release it.
Otherwise it’s time to figure out how to run an external Graphics card in the mpcie port.

The Mali G72 may be an awesome GPU but without the driver we will never know.

You can Email Le-Maker at this address.

Here is the email I received back from LeMaker.
Guess we are going to have to try and contact hisilicon.

Hi,

I’m sorry to hear that.

But Hikey970 G72 driver is not released by Hisilicon yet, only Hikey970 android OS is built by Hisilicon.

We also didn’t get the Mali G72 driver and details from Hisilicon.

Maybe you can refer to this kernel source link(https://github.com/96boards-hikey/linux/tree/hikey970-v4.9) to see if it contains the hikey970 GPU driver.

Best Regards

I told them in the email that the driver was not a part of the kernel.
WE NEED THE USER SPACE DRIVERS.
WE ALREADY KNOW THE X11 OR WAYLAND ISN’T IN THE KERNEL !!

Only thing to try now is to email hisilicon.
