I.MX6 GK802 Xubuntu 12.04

This is an attempt at producing at fast and lightweight desktop release based upon xfce. Given that the majority of the Debian based ARM desktop distros still rely on Open GL Window Managers, the desktop makes use of the Open GL Vivante library where possible. However as the Vivante libraries don't seem to support all the mesa-gl api's this works with limited success.

Ideally the next step would be to rework/recompile some of the applications to use GLES instead of Open GL or find desktop with GLES support.

Given this is a rootfs, it can be tested on other imx6 devices but no guarantees.

What is working:

1. GPU acceleration
2. Video playback using totem
3. Chromium (with GPU acceleration, webgl does not work)
4. Numerous desktop applications
5. Wifi

As per the previous ubuntu 12.04 image, to deploy:

1. Download roofs.

2. Extract rootfs onto your sdcard.



You can also download the Vivante GPU demos, these demonstrate the performance of the GC2000 core. Extract the tar file and the samples are in located in "viv_samples/vdk", there are number  tutorial files that you can run eg "tutorial1, tutorial1_es20".
