iMX6 WebGL?

woutervh — Mon, 11 Sep 2017 11:25:13 GMT

I have a custom board, with a morty based yocto image.
I want to test the WebGL capabilities. Somebody knows what the prerequisities are?
If possible, I'm using a qtwebkit browser, running without x (eglfs platform)

Hi Wouter,

WebGL is supported for a long time in our Yocto and Android releases; it is built into our yocto/android BSP releases.

You can use it directly.

Hope this will be useful for you.
Best regards!

Also in the community-based yocto?
What browser do you need for webgl to work?

Hi Wouter,

All the information regarding Community BSP should be checked on the release notes documentation or mailing list; you could take a look at the following links:

https://community.nxp.com/docs/DOC-99985

Regarding supported browsers on official BSP, we tested for Chrome and QT WebEngine; for other browsers, it should work from theory, but we didn't test it.
