[yocto] chromium is compiling but is not able to add in the image

[Pandey, Kamal]

Thankyou very much for the response.
core-image-minimal-pdm3  is a custom image made from proprietary meta-pdm3 layer. This layer is used to create images and packages for custom embedded device.
I ve enabled x11 in conf/local.conf file.
IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " x11  \
			         chromium \  

and yes that device has a mali GPU support.

Hi Kamal,

I just seen your post to Yocto'sML...

..but I can understand that nobody has the small idea what
core-image-minimal-pdm3 is !

Your bblayers.conf is maybe a mess. They are solved in meta-ifm-pdm3 and meta-ifm-pdm3-bsp

Apart of that, are you trying to get in running with something provided by Marek for Mali (GPU support) ? I just warn that Chromium without GPU is very slow and pratically unusable. Even with GPU support it looks quite slow...

Are you enable x11 ? As far as I know, chromium is running just on top of x11 - I added Marek in CC that can sugest something else.
