Sorry about not being too specific with that at the end of my e-mail. 
What I'm referring to is TI's SGX driver SDK for Android. The one I'm 
using now is the generic Linux SDK. It's weird that they decided to 
release 2 different SDKs, but maybe this is basically what they get from 
ImgTec.

About Korhal: I started my little project without Qt5 and initially used 
the Android precompiled libs that came with the Kindle Fire. I did it 
very similar to the FramebufferNativeWindow() method you describe on 
that web page to get EGL working. Although it worked initially, I had 
doubts that I can get any other binary version of the SGX driver working.

Google also changed the open FramebufferNativeWindow() API recently. I 
don't remember exactly, but some API that was public in Android 2.2 or 
2.3 is now private. Overall I also didn't like the startup latency of 
Zygote/SurfaceFlinger, on the other side the HW composer would be a nice 
thing to have.

Best,
Stephan
