Xorg support for iMX8

[TonyRiederer]

When will iMX8 specific Xorg drivers be available?   

There was a previous question about this that was marked "Assumed Answered". The answer provided was that there was no X11 support at the time of the post. A follow up question about a possible timeline was ignored.

[joanxie]

do you mean imx8MQ board or imx8QM board?

[TonyRiederer]

All variants with GPUs

[TonyRiederer]

We would like to incorporate an imx8 in our new design but the lack of native x11 support is a major hurdle as our current application code relies on it and it will be a major effort to port to wayland with no value added.

Still awaiting a response...

Did you try to enable the xwayland in Weston? I have tried a few applications (including Eclipse) and they work fine using xwayland.
