    I have to port a project from Qt 4 to Qt 5 on an embedded device running on an AMD Geode LX (x86, 500 Mhz CPU). It is running on an embedded linux in framebuffer mode. With Qt 4 QWebView was used to render web content. As QWebView is not available anymore in Qt 5, I tried to port to QWebEngineView.

    My problem is, that I can't get QWebEngine compiled with the -no-opengl parameter in configure. Is it even possible to run WebEngine without GPU hardware acceleration? Because the Geode LX does not seem to have hardware acceleration at all.

      Have you tried specifying software render?

      export QMLSCENE_DEVICE=softwarecontext

        No, I can't compile the Qt WebEngine module and I'm not using Qt Quick. I want to use the Widgets module (QWebEngineView).

          I understand.
          What error does it appear in the compilation?
          Did you try adding mesa support?
