Can't help you, sorry, but you might find the wikipedia article interesting:

To quote "Rather than being developed in-house, this core is a PowerVR
SGX 535 core licensed from Imagination Technologies. Since PowerVR is
not cooperative with the open source movement, this has resulted in
the dependence on outdated closed source Linux drivers."
