Is there any plan for IoT Yocto to support X11 on Genio platforms?
Many ROS2 GUI plugins (e.g., Navigation RViz) require X11, but the documentation states that X11 is not supported.
If native X11 support is unavailable, what are the recommended alternative solutions?
IoT Yocto does not provide native X11 support on Genio platforms as ARM Mali GPU drivers only support Android and Wayland.
For users requiring X11, IoT Yocto recommends using the Wayland driver with XWayland to simulate an X11 environment.
Canonical has enabled XWayland with a Wayland compositor in “Ubuntu on Genio” (link), which allows some Ubuntu applications to run in an X11-compatible mode. However, as XWayland may not provide full compatibility with Xorg X11 (reference).
