Public bug reported: Ubuntu 18.04.04
VA-API fails to load, leading to hardware acceleration not working in chromium This causes applications using the engine to become extremely laggy and utilise 90% + CPU. This is a VERY common use case for ubuntu users and needs to be patched as a priority IMO Appears to have been inherited from Disco and is the same bug or similar as here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-vaapi-driver/+bug/1813131 Current driver: i965-va-driver/bionic,now 2.1.0-0ubuntu1 amd64 [installed] Bugfix candidate: (about to try compiling from source) https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-vaapi-driver/2.3.0-0ubuntu2 Further issue report here: https://github.com/intel/intel-vaapi-driver/issues/419 output from vainfo libva info: VA-API version 1.1.0 libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0 libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_drv_video.so libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_1_1 error: failed to resolve wl_drm_interface(): /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libEGL_mesa.so.0: undefined symbol: wl_drm_interface libva error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_drv_video.so init failed libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1 vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit apt install i965-va-driver i965-va-driver is already the newest version (2.1.0-0ubuntu1). 0 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0 to remove and 2 not to upgrade. apt search i965-va-driver: i965-va-driver/bionic,now 2.1.0-0ubuntu1 amd64 [installed] VAAPI driver for Intel G45 & HD Graphics family i965-va-driver-shaders/bionic 2.1.0-1 amd64 VAAPI driver for Intel G45 & HD Graphics family ** Affects: intel-vaapi-driver (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to intel-vaapi-driver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1866356 Title: libva fails to load [Ubuntu18.04.4 LTS ] - error: failed to resolve wl_drm_interface(): /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libEGL_mesa.so.0: undefined symbol: wl_drm_interface libva error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux- gnu/dri/i965_drv_video.so init failed libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1 vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-vaapi-driver/+bug/1866356/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
