Chromium on i.MX93 with GPU error message

Referring to Solved: Re: Chromium crashes at start on iMX93 EVK - Yocto Rev: LF 6.6.23_2.0.0 - NXP Community for commands to start Chromium on i.MX93

When the Chromium is starting, there is error message appearing:

The Chromium is looking for libGLESv2.so. However i.MX93 has no GPU 2D/3D, therefore I am not sure why there is '--use-gl=egl' option for Chromium here?

I also found libGLES in the file system:

root@imx93evk:/usr/lib/chromium# ls /usr/lib/libGL*
/usr/lib/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2.0 /usr/lib/libGLESv2.so /usr/lib/libGLESv2.so.2 /usr/lib/libGLESv2.so.2.0.0

May I know why OpenGL ES files are here for i.MX93?

THanks

Hello,

Please refer to the following community thread:
https://community.nxp.com/t5/i-MX-Processors/Yocto-Rev-LF6-6-36-2-1-0-bitbake-fails-when-building-with/m-p/1977359

Here it is specified how to build and run chromium on the i.MX93. Also, as said ther we will stop giving support to Chromium on the i.MX93. The last BSP where Chromium runs without any issue is on 6.1.55-2.2.0 (this is due of hardware limitation on 93, it doesn't have GPU).

Best regards/Saludos,
Aldo.
