Note that some tests may fail depending on the video hardware installed in the machine. Now, as the root user: make install Command Explanations : This parameter enables use of vmwgfx's experimental kernel API. : This option enables use of OMAP's experimental kernel API. OMAP is a series of system-on-chips (SoCs) developed by Texas Instruments.
