@frameworkcomputer This is exciting!

I'm trying to figure out if there is a GPU or GPU equivalent on this. It looks like the JH7110 serves at least some of the purposes of a GPU?

EDIT: I am having a little trouble navigating the vendor site but a third party says the GPU is an Imagination BXE-4-32? Is this correct?

@mcc @frameworkcomputer I'm not sure if the third-party site you mentioned links to the product brief, this one is from rvspace(dot)org. It does confirm the BXE-4-32.

@mcc @frameworkcomputer No prob! I was looking at what the potential options are for USB and PCIe expansion and ran across the brief earlier this morning.

I've seen the specs on the JH7100, but that uses a dual-core CPU along with a BXE-2-32 GPU, if I remember correctly.

@qlp @mcc @frameworkcomputer
The JH7110 has a GPU from Imagination, and the open source drivers have been imaginary for a very long while.
The RISC-V community is rather unhappy about that.
So far, Imagination focused on other GPUs.

@mcc @frameworkcomputer it's the same SoC as the VisionFive 2, I think. So anything you can find about that is probably approximately correct.

The soc definitely has a GPU, but it's nothing amazing. Neither are the cpu cores for that matter.

@megmac Honestly not even interested in whether it's good, just is it there and does it conform to any particular standard

@mcc yeah there should be binary blob kms/dri drivers for Linux at the very least for it I'm pretty sure. The chipset's been out for a while and there's a bunch of more or less sketchy products built around it now.
