I am probably telling you something you already know, but afaik the Pinephone Pro uses the Rockchip RK3399 which according to the datasheet (https://opensource.rock-chips.com/images/d/d7/Rockchip_RK3399_Datasheet_V2.1-20200323.pdf page 16, 1.2.9 Graphics Engine) contains a Mali GPU. That means Ruslan Bukin's Panfrost article in the FreeBSD Journal Jul/Aug 2021 at https://freebsdfoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/The-Panfrost-Driver.pdf might be interesting regarding graphics. Looking forward to your updates! Best regards Stephan > > thanks! > -pete
