      It's because of "EGL on X ........... no". ES2 defaults to preferring EGL over GLX (since you don't normally use GLX with ES). Not sure if there's an easy fix. You could manyally change xcb-plugin.pro to force GLX. (search for something like contains(QT_CONFIG, xcb-xlib):!contains(QT_CONFIG, opengles2))

        Thanks for your feedback. In the meanwhile I have compiled Qt with -opengl desktop and now the QML files show up but it's very slow. Following error appears in the console:

        @libGL error: failed to load driver: Mali DRI2
        libGL error: Try again with LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose for more details.@

        I'll try to compile Qt with EGL on X, fyi here is why the test failed :

            I had the same problem on a different platform. I patched egl-x11.cpp to do a cast from void* to Display*, now it reports "EGL on X ........... yes". I did not test it on the hardware though.

            This might be worth a bug report.

              More info on this: In EGL 1.3 (which is from 2008 btw), the eglplatform.h defines EGLNativeDisplayType as void*. From EGL 1.4 on, EGLNativeDisplayType is defined as Display*. Maybe our toolchains are too old.

              After patching egl-x11.cpp, the same error happens on qtbase/src/plugins/platforms/xcb/qxcbconnection.cpp. There is a bug report concerning that file: https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-36551

                    [quote author="Cmdr" date="1415800297"]More info on this: In EGL 1.3 (which is from 2008 btw), the eglplatform.h defines EGLNativeDisplayType as void*. From EGL 1.4 on, EGLNativeDisplayType is defined as Display*. Maybe our toolchains are too old.

                    After patching egl-x11.cpp, the same error happens on qtbase/src/plugins/platforms/xcb/qxcbconnection.cpp. There is a bug report concerning that file: https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-36551[/quote]

                    It does not work like that. If your EGL implementation is targetting X then the native display/window types will usually (but not always) be the corresponding Xlib pointer types. If the EGL implementation is targetting fbdev only (no support under X, only raw framebuffer, i.e. eglfs) then it is like to be a void * or similar. In some cases the EGL implementation supports both, which is achieved either via ifdefs for these types or by using a generic type like void *. In any case, you will need to know in advance what the vendor-provided driver (the EGL implementation) in question supports (fbdev? X? both?) and plan/configure Qt accordingly.
