    Default qt with multiple monitors

    hi all,
    we are planning to use freescale i.mx6 processor with two displays. the software platform we would be using is a qt application under linux without X11. We have only one process with qt and we will be using qt5. The software shows different widgets on different displays. The displays are accessible under different framebuffers, say first display is /dev/fb0 and second one is /dev/fb1. My question is if it is possible to drive both displays with only one qt-application using eglfs or should we consider another software layer like X11 or wayland?
    Any experiences similar to this ? Advices ?

    Even if it doesn't work out of the box, I'm almost sure you can make it work by modifying the QPA plugin for eglfs.
    Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own. Resistance is futile.

    Please ask Qt related questions on the forum and not using private messages or visitor messages.
