cd /usr/ports/sysutils/libva-utils && make install && vainfo
Thanks for the quick hint. This is what vainfo -a has to say:
Trying display: x11
libva info: VA-API version 1.22.0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/iHD_drv_video.so
libva info: Trying to open /usr/local/lib/dri/iHD_drv_video.so
libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1
libva info: Trying to open /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/i965_drv_video.so
libva info: Trying to open /usr/local/lib/dri/i965_drv_video.so
libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1
vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit
Note the filepaths: indeed,
ls: /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/i965_drv_video.so: No such file or directory
ls: /usr/local/lib/dri/i965_drv_video.so: No such file or directory
I have intel-vaapi-driver-2.4.1 installed,
which provides a single file, namely
/usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/i965_drv_video.so
but vainfo doesn't seem to even try that.
Is there a way to tell vainfo to try that?
(libva-utils is a bunch of binaries with no manpage.)
