Hello Marian, Looking at the forum discussion I guess you intend to run wayland/weston with drm backend on the Pi board. Correct me if I am wrong. "Wayland" should straight away build for ARM as it has very minimal dependency and is hardware agnostic. "Weston" is the hardware related part of the wayland project. A wayland reference implementation of a compositor. So you would need a rendering backend that works for your board so as to be able to run Weston. Weston right now supports drm, X11, android and wayland itself as backends I seem to agree with twolife 's comment in the forum. If Pi doesn't provide DRM support then it wouldn't be possible to use weston's drm-backend. One will have to write a new backed for the Pi board. Is there a way to do GLES2 on the framebuffer directly? If there is a way, you could get Weston running without X by writing a new backend. You can follow Pekka's android back-end for understanding. With this though you can't run GL clients on Wayland, but you might be able to run a few simple clients like simple-shm, flower, dnd .. etc <div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Aug 28, 2012 at 12:18 PM, Marian Buschsieweke <<a href="mailto:m.buschsieweke@uni-muenster.de" target="_blank">m.buschsieweke@uni-muenster.de</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hello everybody! I'm trying to compile wayland and weston on the raspberry pi. For those who not know: The Raspberry Pi is a 35$ ARM linux box with about 2W power consumption (see <a href="http://www.raspberrypi.org/faqs" target="_blank">http://www.raspberrypi.org/faqs</a> for more details). I already got wayland and cairo with EGL and GLESv2 support compiled and installed, but I'm having problems with weston. The raspberry pi provides a proprietary driver with EGL, GLESv2 and OpenVG support. I'm using <a href="https://github.com/robclark/libgbm" target="_blank">https://github.com/robclark/libgbm</a> to get libgbm working on the Pi. Is there someone who has a Raspberry Pi already got weston working on the Pi? Is it actually possible? I've seen that "qtwayland" does work on the Pi.
