Description

Picked up a CB1 and Pi4 adaptor board and flashed the Minimal image with the plan of trying retropie out on it, after installing and failing to get a working install, after help from the retorpie community found out that there are no drivers PanFrost drivers complied in the kernal for the Mali G31 gpu.

Will a build be created including these so the board is not limited to command line / 3d printer uses.

Research direction

Start by inspecting how the Minimal image configures and builds its kernel, then check whether Panfrost support is enabled for the Mali G31. Done means a rebuilt image includes the required GPU driver and supports the board's reported graphics use case.
