I recommend using my Mesa branch (https://github.com/Gnurou/mesa) for
minimum hassle, as it includes a few extra hacks for Tegra (not all of
which may be needed, but just to be on the safe side). Compile with the
following options:

Also use the most recent kernel with CONFIG_DRM_TEGRA_STAGING set and
you should have a working system! No need to modify userspace apps with
this hack.

The required firmware for TX1 is already in linux-firmware, so if you
have it installed you should have everything that is required.
