| TOR-2397 | Fixed | Chromium container fails to start in the evaluation containers on modules with GPU | Verdin iMX8M Plus, Verdin iMX8M Mini, Colibri iMX8X, Colibri iMX6, Apalis iMX8, Apalis iMX6 | Debian Base Containers | Low |
Description: The Chromium and Cog containers were split, and HW acceleration on the GPU (rendering) enabled on Chromium. These changes have broken the startup of Portainer in our "TorizonCore with Evaluation Containers" image. |
| TOR-2261 | Fixed | Weston configuration does not work on apalis-imx8 with HDMI display | Apalis iMX8 | Debian Packages | Low |
Description: The Weston configuration file does not make changes as expected. This was identified when trying to rotate the screen by 90 degrees, as documented in Working with Weston on TorizonCore. Workaround: We suspect this is an issue with sharing the configuration file with the Weston container. Try to share the entire directory where the configuration file is located, instead of only the file itself. For example: "-v ${PWD}/weston/:/etc/xdg/weston" or "-v ${PWD}/weston-dev/:/etc/xdg/weston-dev"
Update 1: It seems that the underlying culprit are trailing whitespaces. Ensure that your configuration file does not contain trailing whitespace.
Update 2: in the end, the "name=*" line of the configuration file was commented out. Please remember to uncomment this line to make your customization effective. |
| 5.7.0-devel-202206 monthly pre-release |
| TOR-2276 | Fixed | Splash screen working on Apalis iMX8 only if HDMI overlay is disabled | Apalis iMX8 | Device Tree Overlays | Low |
Description: Currently, it is stated that splash screen on Apalis iMX8 is not supported due to an NXP DRM driver limitation.
However, if the HDMI interface is disabled (HDMI device tree overlays removed) and only the LVDS interface is enabled (LVDS device tree overlays added), then the splash screen shows up on the LVDS display. |
| 5.6.0-devel-202203 monthly pre-release |
| TOR-2167 | New Feature | As a developer, I want to review the NXP license added to TorizonCore without evaluation containers | Verdin iMX8M Plus, Verdin iMX8M Mini, Colibri iMX8X, Colibri iMX6, Apalis iMX8, Apalis iMX6 | Open Embedded | |
Description: TorizonCore releases come in two “flavors”: with and without evaluation containers. We add the NXP license to the Toradex Easy Installer image without evaluation containers, but we don’t use it. In other words, when installing TorizonCore, users are not prompted to accept the license.
In this task, we will evaluate if the license is being deployed as a mistake, or if we should enable prompting users to accept NXP’s EULA.
Update: we came to the conclusion that, even for images without evaluation containers, some of them are shipped with components that are subject to NXP's EULA. Therefore, the license will also show up on those images, on a case-by-case basis mostly dependent on the SoC that equips a given SoM. |
| 5.5.0-devel-202112 monthly release |
| TOR-1638 | New Feature | As a user, I want an easier way to configure video output and resolution, so I don't spend much time doing this manually | Verdin iMX8M Plus, Verdin iMX8M Mini, Colibri iMX8X, Colibri iMX6ULL, Colibri iMX7, Colibri iMX6, Apalis iMX8, Apalis iMX6, Apalis iMX8X | Debian Base Containers | |
Description: A section dedicated to this has been added to the article Working with Weston on TorizonCore, together with comments on our weston.ini files on our Weston Debian Docker image. In summary, it points to the official weston-drm documentation. |
| 5.5.0-devel-202111 monthly release |
| TOR-2046 | New Feature | As a user, I want to be able to use NXP GStreamer packages on iMX8 | Verdin iMX8M Plus, Verdin iMX8M Mini, Colibri iMX8X, Apalis iMX8, Apalis iMX8X | Debian Packages | |
Description: The NXP fork of GStreamer provides some hardware-accelerated features that are not available in the upstream GStreamer project. Due to a mismatch between the version of NXP's fork compatible with our BSP, and the upstream package provided by Debian, we provide Debian packages for a fixed version of the NXP fork. Learn more about it on How to use GStreamer on TorizonCore. |
| 5.4.0-devel-202109 Monthly Release |

| TOR-1725 | Fixed | Forward appropriate arguments to the kernel from the boot script | Apalis iMX8 | Open Embedded | Low |
Description: The BSP stores platform (SoM) related kernel arguments in the defargs U-Boot environment variable. Let's append the content of this variable in the default TorizonCore kernel arguments. |
| 5.3.0-devel-202105 Monthly Release |
| TOR-1696 | Fixed | The imx-gpu-viv-demos package is not installing | Verdin iMX8M Plus, Verdin iMX8M Mini, Colibri iMX8X, Apalis iMX8, Apalis iMX8X | Debian Base Containers | Low |

| TOR-2022 | Known Issue | TorizonCore Real Time image reboots randomly on Apalis iMX8 | Apalis iMX8 | Kernel | Low |
Description: It has been reported by a customer that the PREEMPT_RT version of TorizonCore reboots spontaneously on Apalis iMX8. Internally, we were able to reproduce this bug on TorizonCore 5.7.0.
As of July 2022 - when 5.7.0 LTS has been released, the images with the PREEMPT_RT patch haven't been fully validated by Toradex. We have only run smoke tests and cyclictest to make sure that the system boots properly and the PREEMPT_RT patches are working on idle conditions.
In the TorizonCore Download Links we only list PREEMPT_RT images as monthly pre-releases, because they don't go through our validation steps to promote them to production-ready.
This bug is rejected because the customer who reported it didn't follow up on it and we suspect they may have been able to use the regular image without PREEMPT_RT, or another alternative. If you are waiting for this bug fix, please contact us so we can re-evaluate this decision and possibly resume our investigation. |
