Hi Daijingmeng,  
  
  
  
Can you share the following details with us, please:

1. Your development machine OS and instruction set (e.g. Windows x86-64)  
2. Your target device’s OS name and version number (Android, Linux, Windows etc)  
3. The PowerVR GPU you’re targeting  
4. The driver version on the target device  
  
  
  
Note: The information for 3. & 4. can be retrieved by running ‘cat /proc/pvr/version’ on Unix-like platforms (e.g. Linux & Android).  
  
  
  
Thanks,  
  
Joe
