Could you clarify the question? Are you looking for drivers for a specific device?

I am working on Android on the Intel Atom platform (Intel GMA500, SGX 535 Core), but I can not find the OpenGL ES hardware acceleration implementation (e.g. libhgl.so). So, can your provide this driver/HAL to me?\<?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /\>

Thank you,

We generally do not distribute device drivers. You should contact the hardware manufacturer, i.e. Intel, for driver support.

Now we have the source code of the X Server. Does it possible for us to develop the Android Open GL ES HAL(library, .so) via referencing the X Server code?\<?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /\>

  

If it is possible, can you provide us some material to speed up the development? Or under what kind of condition, we can get these help?

Hello,

&nbsp;
  

No, it is not possible to develop OpenGL ES drivers through the X server code. Please, contact the platform manufacturer for drivers support.

Hi,

&nbsp;
  

Do you know where can I get the Android driver for SGX535? I am currently using Intel's GMA500, but they don't have Android driver support. I just need 2D acceleration at this moment. Please help me to get the driver. Many thanks for the help.
  

&nbsp;
  

Thanks.

Hello,

&nbsp;
  

I am not aware of any Android drivers for GMA500 but you need to ask Intel. We really cannot do anything here.
