    Hej<br>
    <br>
    i just chime in, playing around with a raspi3 and the openGL driver.<br>
    <br>
    i second the statement, that the driver is pretty alpha, but it
    seems to work, if one tweeks the right screws.<br>
    <br>
    on installing GEM:<br>
    <br>
    i did not compile from hand, but used the GEM version, that comes
    with the pies add-software.<br>
    this provides the latest GEM stable, 0.93.3, <br>
    starting pd from the terminal with <br>
    pd -lib Gem<br>
    <br>
    <br>
    on activating the driver:<br>
    the process of activating the driver gave me some headaches.<br>
    - problem: flashing rainbow-square, solution: proper power supply,
    2.5A! (i finally used a rasppi-branded one)<br>
    <br>
    - problem: black screen after boot, when driver is activated,
    solution:<br>
    <br>
    the problem doesnt seem to affect all users, so maybe it is related
    to the EDID-communications<br>
    of the different screens, at least thats a guess of some people.<br>
    <br>
    i found, that some users overcame this problem by adding some
    information to /boot/cmdline.txt<br>
    (not to the /boot/config.txt)<br>
    basically defining the resolution of the pi.<br>
    <br>
    found here(the comments to the release announcment):<br>

    <p>HI</p>
    <p>None of my hdmi settings worked in config.txt; I got the black
      screen.</p>
    <p>HOWEVER, I put the video resolution as a kernel parameter and IT
      WORKED. Mine is as follows (note the video=..) parameter (it
      depends on the actual device of course).</p>
    <p>pi@raspberrypi:/boot $ cat cmdline.txt<br>
      dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 console=ttyAMA0,115200 console=tty1
      root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline
      fsck.repair=yes rootwait video=1360×768"<br>
    </p>
    <p>with this added "video XXXXxYYYY" i was able to boot and use GEM<br>
      as i would have expected. <br>
      only thing is, when entering a lower resolution then the native
      resolution of the connected display device,<br>
      the screen is somehow divided and has colored pixels on the left.<br>
      so it is not exactly plug'n'play.<br>
    </p>
    <p>the other necessary setting, that is covered in most of the
      raspi-forums:<br>
      - set the GPU-Memory to 128mb via raspi-config<br>
    </p>
    <p>anyway, i happily use the extendedviewtoolkit for video mapping
      on a pie now,<br>
    </p>
    <p>a side note:<br>
      when using PD with the activated openGL driver, i can't see any
      patchcords anymore, except<br>
      if they are straight downwards. well, for the moment i can live
      with that, since i prepare the patches on a different machine.<br>
    </p>
    <p>maybe if i change the width of the patchcords to more than one
      pixel, i would be able to see them.<br>
      i will have a look into that on the weekend.<br>
    </p>
    <p>so far, my experience.<br>
      unluckily no guarantee it works for all the pies out there.<br>
    </p>
    <p>i will share my further findings with this list.<br>
    </p>
    <p><br>
      cheers, peter<br>
