HW: i.MX8QM-MEK

images: official releases from https://www.nxp.com/design/software/embedded-software/i-mx-software/embedded-linux-for-i-mx-applicat...

boot mode: sdcard

HDMI interface

 

I tested 5.15.32_2.0.0 (https://www.nxp.com/webapp/Download?colCode=L5.15.32_2.0.0_MX8QM&appType=license) and 5.10.72_2.2.2 (https://www.nxp.com/webapp/Download?colCode=L5.10.72_2.2.2_MX8QM&appType=license)

but weston does not launch with "no drm device found" error.

 

Please see the full log of weston

issue resolved by replacing u-boot device tree environment "imx8qm-mek-rpmsg.dtb" with "imx8qm-mek-hdmi.dtb".

BTW, why isn't "imx8qm-mek-hdmi.dtb" used by default?

for more information.

There is no drm connector. I guess it's the root cause.
And I am using HDMI interface.

How can I handle this problem?

Do I need specific configurations to enable DRM? (kernel, u-boot arg etc)

For more information...

 

I also tried imx-5.15.5-1.0.0.xml, result was the same. (weston does not launch with error "no drm device found")

 

So, I have tested the following versions up to now, and Weston is not launched in all of them with the same error "no drm device found"

 

versions: 

- 5.15.32_2.0.0 (it's the latest version)

- 5.15.5_1.0.0

5.10.72_2.2.2

 

Build configurations

- DISTRO=fsl-imx-wayland

- MACHINE=imx8qmmek

- image name: imx-image-full

Hello,

Try a new kernel, and re-burn the SDcard.

Thank you for your reply.

But I already tested official image 5.15.32_2.0.0 (https://www.nxp.com/webapp/Download?colCode=L5.15.32_2.0.0_MX8QM&appType=license) and yocto build by myself (https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/imx-manifest/log/?h=imx-linux-kirkstone based on https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/user-guide/IMX_YOCTO_PROJECT_USERS_GUIDE.pdf

 

I think these are the latest version, is there anything else?
