2022-12-16 Thread Gert van de Kraats
If the i915 dri driver is present gnome-shell is using the DRM platform (not the Wayland platform?) with this driver. If i915 is not present gnome-shell uses the DRM platform with the kms_swrast-driver! I did not see this with the lsof-command, because the name of the "zink"-driver was shown whic

I was able to build a copy of the libgl1-mesa-dri with the Gallium i915 driver enabled, and that fixed the flickering problem on my netbook from that era. Here's a copy if anyone would like to try https://github.com/wh0/debian-mesa-i915g/releases/tag/22.3.0-1-1 I saw that Fedora had enabled it to

Hello Simon, Unfortunately my 32-bit Dell-laptop does not crash and I think the software-boys should not stop delivery of software for older hardware, forcing to waste good working hardware. Therefore I will use Debian testing as long as it supports 32-bit, so at least some one is testing so
