Alt-Odroid U2/3 - Arch Linux - Mali/xorg-armsoc

If you want to try the the latest Mali blob with dsd's xf86-video-armsoc as dicussed here :

http://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?f=77&t=4456#p35809

I've built packages which do this.

PKGBUILD's : https://github.com/gripped/odroid-u2-pkgbuilds

Packages : http://odroidxu.leeharris.me.uk/u2/

To do this you can add a custom repo (as root) :

cat >> /etc/pacman.conf <<EOF

[odroidu]

SigLevel = Never

Server = http://odroidxu.leeharris.me.uk/u2

EOF

And then update pacman :

pacman -Syu

And then install them with pacman :

pacman -S linux-odroidu-r4p0 mali-odroid-r4p0 xf86-video-armsoc-dsd xorg-server-dsd

And you'll need to edit /etc/xorg.conf. Mine now has

# X.Org X server configuration file for xfree86-video-mali

Section "Device"

      Identifier "Mali-Fbdev"

      Driver "armsoc"

      Option "fbdev" "/dev/fb1"

      Option "DriverName" "exynos"

EndSection

Section "Screen"

      Identifier "Mali-Screen"

      Device "Mali-Fbdev"

      DefaultDepth 24

EndSection

Section "DRI"

      Mode 0666

EndSection

I'm not sure if I'm going to maintain/update these packages, etc as I don't know if I am going to keep using the armsoc driver myself. But the PKGBUILD's are there so you can fork the repo and DIY.
