it is. the problem with vivante is that their *own* proprietary
driver is so shit that the entire reputation of vivante's technology
has been shot to shit.
i spoke with one fabless semiconductor company, urging them to use
etnaviv: unfortunately my contact used the word "vivante" when talking
to the engineer, who told my contact "it's shit. it keeps crashing.
so we won't use it".
whoopsie...
