Clum

This is based on the guide at http://linux-sunxi.org/Qt5_For_Mali_Binarieswith modification. 
 
1. compile armbian (In my case Jessie without desktop) from source https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib
 
2. log in and edit /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf  add following line:
8189fs
mali
ump
drm
mali_drm
sunxi_cedar_mod
 
3. Change the default gcc to gcc-4.8:
sudo apt-get install gcc-4.8 g++-4.8
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.9 10
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-4.9 10
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.8 20
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-4.8 20
 
// Switch between version
sudo update-alternatives --config gcc
 
sudo update-alternatives --config g++
 
3. Compile and install Mali Driver:
add a file to /etc/udev/rules.d/ and call it 50-mali.rules with following content:
KERNEL=="mali", MODE="0660", GROUP="video"
KERNEL=="ump", MODE="0660", GROUP="video"
 
add the following to /etc/apt/source.list:
deb http://packages.linux-sunxi.org/ubuntu/quantal main
deb-src http://packages.linux-sunxi.org/ubuntu/quantal main
 
Run the following in console:
sudo apt-get install libump
apt-get install debhelper dh-autoreconf fakeroot pkg-config
apt-get install git build-essential autoconf automake
apt-get install xutils-dev
git clone --recursive https://github.com/linux-sunxi/sunxi-mali.git
cd sunxi-mali
make config
sudo make install
 
Reboot the board
 
4. Install dependencies: 
sudo apt-get install libxcb1 libxcb1-dev libx11-xcb1 libx11-xcb-dev \
  libxcb-keysyms1 libxcb-keysyms1-dev libxcb-image0 libxcb-image0-dev  \
  libxcb-shm0 libxcb-shm0-dev libxcb-icccm4 libxcb-icccm4-dev \
  libxcb-sync0-dev libxcb-render-util0 libxcb-render-util0-dev \
  libxcb-xfixes0-dev libxrender-dev libxcb-shape0-dev libxcb-randr0-dev \  libsqlite3-dev \
  libxcb-glx0-dev libxcb-xinerama0-dev\
 
sudo apt-get install libfontconfig1-dev libdbus-1-dev libudev-dev libicu-dev libsqlite3-dev libxslt1-dev libssl-dev libasound2-dev libavcodec-dev libswscale-dev libgstreamer0.10-dev gstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev gstreamer-tools  streamer0.10-plugins-bad libpulse-dev libx11-dev libglib2.0-dev  freetds-dev libsqlite0-dev libpq-dev libiodbc2-dev libmysqlclient-dev firebird-dev libpng12-dev libgst-dev libxext-dev libxcb1 libxcb1-dev libx11-xcb1 libx11-xcb-dev libxcb-keysyms1 libxcb-keysyms1-dev libxcb-image0-dev libxcb-shm0 libxcb-shm0-dev libxcb-icccm4 libxcb-icccm4-dev libxcb-render-util0
libxcb-render-util0-dev libxcb-xfixes0-dev libxrender-dev libxcb-shape0-dev libxcb-randr0-dev libxcb-glx0-dev libxi-dev libdrm-dev
 
5. Download Qt everywhere source and extract
 
6. ./configure -release -opensource -confirm-license -opengl es2 -no-pch -nomake examples —nomake tests -skip multimedia 
 
7. make & make install (NB: using -j3 seems to give error when compile)

Go for the legacy kernel. There is no MALI in a modern kernel .. yet.
