## Purpose
|
||||||
|
KMS (Kernel Mode Setting) mode is a feature where RetroArch can use the OpenGL driver outside Xorg, running straight in the virtual terminal. It is a fairly obscure feature, but very powerful in a console scenario.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Requirements
|
||||||
|
To use KMS mode you need:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Recent version of MESA (9.0+)
|
||||||
|
- libgbm 9.0+, libdrm
|
||||||
|
- Open source driver which supports KMS
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
These require a fairly up-to-date distro.
|
||||||
|
After compiling RetroArch, you should see this when running `retroarch --features`:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
KMS:
|
||||||
|
KMS/EGL context support: yes
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If KMS mode is working correctly, RetroArch should start up outside Xorg as well.
