It sounds like you are still using Ubuntu 22.04. Although we would
rather you used Ubuntu 24.04, the very old version of Mesa they are
offering may not work in 24.04.

I think you have two options:

(a) Use Ubuntu 22.04 and force install ALL the Mesa 22.3.5 packages from
Imagination (at the same time!). Anything with version
23.2.1-1ubuntu3.1~22.04.3 must be replaced with the equivalent 22.3.5-1
driver; or

(b) Use Ubuntu 24.04 and rebuild its copy of Mesa (24.2.8) to include
PVR support.

Bug description:
  We are currently working on enabling GNOME (Wayland) to run on top of
  a Imagination GPU hardware accelerator for RISCV64. Initially, we
  tested this on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, but after receiving suggestions from
  the GNOME forum, we decided to switch to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. Since
  upgrading, we’ve noticed significant improvements, and GNOME is
  running more smoothly than expected. However, the graphics
  configuration still shows “Software Rendering” instead of utilising
  hardware acceleration. Despite configuring the Imagination GPU, we are
  unable to enable hardware acceleration for GNOME, which is impacting
  3D rendering performance.

  Please find the below EGL logs details for Imagination GPU as below:

  OpenGL ES profile vendor: Imagination Technologies
  OpenGL ES profile renderer: PowerVR Rogue GE8300
  OpenGL ES profile version: OpenGL ES 3.2
  OpenGL ES profile shading language version: OpenGL ES GLSL ES 3.20
  OpenGL ES profile extensions:

  After several attempts and experiments running GPU computing tests,
  such as OpenCL tests on the Imagination GPU, an issue arises when
  attempting to execute 3D programs[opengles], as they are being
  executed on the CPU instead of the imagination GPU.
