Hello! Can Borealis run without X11? #169

Open Fredrum opened 2 years ago

Fredrum commented 2 years ago

Hello I'm looking at possibly using this for Chiaki on the Raspberry Pi and was wondering if Borealis runs in a non X11 environment? (And no Wayland either)

As I'm looking at 64bit Linux OS's and have a hardware video acceleration path that should be much more efficient than OpenGL under X11.

Cheers!

Hello, it depends on glfw so if your glfw works without X11 it should be fine I guess ? It's been a while since I touched the barebones of the project so I'm not sure
