3d driver for the spica

[Framp]

That's nice

Thanks, I'll try to do build it

ps: are you using kate to work on the drivers?
just asking because of the ~s

Compiled libraries with myself.
libGLESv1_CM_fimg.so size 2.7Mb
libGLESv2_fimg.so size 502Kb
Loads without errors but GL works at degraded speed with no textures

so this http://forum.samdroid.net/f9/3d-driv...html#post23965 is working sources for the driver. and we should start to tweak them for performance

put it on my phone too and its definitly something else than the samsung version.

I think we need dedicated compiler for samsung s3c6410... and the question is that source use "multimedia acceleration" in s3c6410 or use core and 3D API is emulated?

I'm afraid it's not that simple. My 2D driver requires my modified kernel module, so it would require recompiling the kernel after adding the module to initramfs. Currently I can't provide binary images, because i don't have a toolchain compatible with Samsung binary modules, and the resulting kernel would be useless for people booting from flash memory (as the two binary-only modules are in the flash memory drivers). My testing image boots almost entire system from memory card, so i don't need these modules.

Leshak uses his own toolchain for kernel compiling (ask him for copy), and toolchain from android's platform/prebuild for building Froyo.

tom3q, don't you want to create a project on github, or better ask Leshak to create a branch for you here leshak's Profile - GitHub

Sure, i will put the code into some versioning system, but only once i get it into some usable state.

About the Samsung 3D driver sources, i don't think they are usable as a driver at all. In my opinion the code is badly broken and it can be only used as help for writing new driver from scratch.

It's Samsung we're talking about, I'm not surprised at all. But I'm happy you're working on it, glad to see some progress too. Thanks for donating your time!

According to the driver source, if the hardware 3D is used in logcat must be message:
*** FIMG VERSION : 0x%x ***
But in logcat no such message. So GL runs in software
