Yeah that's on my list of things to get working, will probably require some kernel module though haven't looked too much into it yet..
The other thing is that a native xserver would be nice, because Xephyr converts the touch inputs to mouse inputs.. Chromium can interpret a mouse as touchscreen, which is the reason why it works like on Android now, but that's only one application. First step would probably be to get xf86-video-imx working on Alpine (there's no package for it, also compatability with kernel?), and then creating a plugin for xorg that refreshes the screen according to the xdamage events (possibly with NiLuJe's FBInk?). I toyed a little with the fbdev driver, and while something happens on the screen when manually refreshing, something is off as the colors and size of elements don't match, probably something related to color depth or whatever. But performance with fbdev would probably way worse than with the imx driver anyways |
If you are writing about your PW3 ...
All series 5.x firmware devices are running native X11.
Plus, the 'diags' firmware of the K4 is also running X11.
So there are your X11 drivers for each device, Amazon/Lab126 already ships them.
