11.Exit and save.
12.Make and install the kernel
make
su -c "make modules_install"
su -c "make install"
If the make is successful, the kernel should be there. Check that ramdisk was made
in the
/boot directory.
13.Unpack and install the
cedarview-libwsbm binary tarball relative to your root file
system. Assume the patch tarball was extracted in
/home/jim:
cd /
tar xvf /home/jim/cdv-gfx-drivers-1.0.3_bee/bin/cedarview-libwsbm-
1.1.0.tar
14.Install libva and dependencies from your package manager:
yum -y install libva
15.Unpack and install the appropriate user space (Xorg, 2D, 3D) Cedarview drivers
relative to your root file system. While the PowerVR driver is a Mesa replacement
for EGL and GL ES,
mesa-libGL of the stated version is required for OpenGL
operation. Note that development headers are installed as well.
tar xvf /home/jim/cdv-gfx-drivers-1.0.3_bee/bin/cedarview-userspace-
v1.0.3_bee.tar
16.Unpack the PVR VA-API driver for Cedartrail-accelerated H.264, MPEG-2, and VC-1
streams:
tar xvf /home/jim/cdv-gfx-drivers-1.0.3_bee/bin cedarview-vaapi-
v1.0.3_bee.tar
17.Edit
/etc/default/grub as follows:
a. If your display is not LVDS, in the kernel line, add:
video=LVDS-1:d
This is a workaround to an issue that causes the driver to believe that an LVDS
display is connected.
b. In the kernel line, add
vmalloc=256MB
