Graphics Engine in the BBB not being used?

Hi Everyone,

So I recently purchased a BeagleBone Black and was looking to get into some graphics processing stuff. After a bit of research, I discovered that the BeagleBone Black has an SGX530 3D Graphics Engine within its Sitara AM3358BZCZ100 processor, which is not being utilized by the BeagleBone Black out of the box.

Is this accurate? If so, is there any way we could enable this graphics engine to assist in graphics processing? So far, I am running Debian v9.5, which shipped with my board. Thanks in advance!

Grab this "iot" monthly snapshot, sgx is enabled out of the box..

DO NOT install any QT package thru apt, you will have to build any EGL
(non-xorg) application against the installed libraries to keep the SGX
libraries intact..

Regards,
