Yet it needs to be said that I am not at all sure how I did get this running, and trying to do it again failed. I seem to recall, but am not certain, that I was able to compile against the NVIDIA graphics libraries which may explain why this has such a pretty display. Second thing: this isn’t supposed to be possible, something to do with the basis dependency of “simgear” not compiling workably on ARMhf systems due to them using EGL rather than OpenGL. Base unit is Jetson TK1 with L4T at R21.3, Ubuntu 14.04 with all of the latest apt-get dist-upgrade files. Attempts to even reproduce the original compilation also failed. Recent attempts to compile this anew, first with very recent versions and their associated dependencies, met with failure. Serendipity, as well as weeks of persistence, were all involved. Two things I need to say here: first, this was something that I think I compiled almost by accident. However, at all times, it looks just fantastically great, as you’d expect from the graphics system. This instance is known to play somewhat strangely with the power-saving methods of the ARM SoC and sometimes it’s just amazingly fast and at times it’s a bit lagged and stuttering. It tends to keep the system load up around 3.xx or right near that. It works, although it is best run standalone at fullscreen will most of your services turned off. I have just managed to “resurrect” a working instance of the flight simulator that comes from. I am back for a while, having been indisposed for some time with the Jetson TK1 in storage etc.
