Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, xcb.

Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

I think , I need to install the X11......

Hi,

You should only need to install the libraries the compiler has been warning about. If on debian apt-get install libxext-dev.

@SGaist
Hi,
I have been added all the libraries that qt5 app needs.
but when running the Qt5 app , the error occurs:

QFactoryLoader::QFactoryLoader() checking directory path "/opt/autorun/platforms" ...
loaded library "/usr/local/qt5/plugins/platforms/libqeglfs.so"
QFactoryLoader::QFactoryLoader() checking directory path "/usr/local/qt5/plugins/egldeviceintegrations" ...
QFactoryLoader::QFactoryLoader() checking directory path "/opt/autorun/egldeviceintegrations" ...
Could not open egl display
Aborted

any ideas ?

SGaist

On what are you running that application ?

@jsulm
Hi,
can you tell me my eglfs plugin is right?
I want to use the eglfs_kms.....

SGaist

What device are you using exactly ?

Alex_wang

@SGaist
Hi, the device is ti DM8168/AM389x,its arm arch is armv7-a.
the configure result shows that :

KMS enabled.
......
EGL enabled.
......

egl-x11.cpp: In function 'int main(int, char**)':
egl-x11.cpp:48:50: error: invalid conversion from 'Display*' to 'EGLNativeDisplayType'
egl-x11.cpp:49:11: error: invalid conversion from 'EGLNativeDisplayType' to 'Display*'
egl-x11.cpp:50:79: error: invalid conversion from 'Window' to 'void*'
egl-x11.cpp:51:26: error: invalid conversion from 'void*' to 'Window'
egl-x11.cpp:51:26: error:   initializing argument 2 of 'int XDestroyWindow(Display*, Window)'
Makefile:239: recipe for target 'egl-x11.o' failed
make: *** [egl-x11.o] Error 1
**EGL-X11 disabled.**

so, the egl/x11 is old on my device ,that cause the error ?

SGaist

What Linux distribution are you using ?

Alex_wang

@SGaist
Hi,

Linux version 2.6.37+  (gcc version 4.5.3 20110311 (prerelease) (GCC) )

jsulm

@Alex_wang This is the Linux kernel version not the name and version of your Linux distribution.
And kernel is very old.

Alex_wang

@jsulm
Hi,
sorry,my kernel is from the DVRRDK(04.00.00.03) that ti provides,
I can't know the linux distribution.....

SGaist

Just because of the date I'd say that your dependencies are out of date.

You may try to patch Qt's to match your version of the relevant X11 libraries but there's not guaranty it's doable.

Alex_wang

@SGaist

I would to cross compile the latest libX11, and install ,
then the "EGL-X11 can be enabled" ?

SGaist

If possible you should rather upgrade your device distribution to something more recent.

Alex_wang

@SGaist
Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
Perhaps I can only do that.
