thanks for report @Martine! I expected it not to work. The good news is that firefox 80 will be released in late August, with VAAPI support for X11

Chromium spews a little bit more info: MESA-LOADER: failed to retrieve device information MESA-LOADER: failed to open i915 (search paths /usr/lib/dri) failed to load driver: i915 MESA-LOADER: failed to open kms_swrast (search paths /usr/lib/dri) failed to load driver: kms_swrast MESA-LOADER: failed to open swrast (search paths /usr/lib/dri) failed to load swrast driver

The non-experimemtal driver does not give this error

@Alium, you were correct.EXPERIMENTAL builds fine with the patches, my bad.

However after installing vainfo says: Segmentation fault: core dumped

I had hoped with running mpv from cmdline I got more info but the moment I switch to VAAPI mpv crashes with the same error.

@Martine did you use the gcc-10 patches that are in my PKGBUILD? it does not look like that... ;-)

Tried to build the 2.4.0-EXPERIMENTAL build but fails with the following error: 


/usr/bin/ld: ./.libs/libi965_drv_video.a(libi965_drv_video_la-gen9_hevc_encoder.o):(.rodata+0x2a20): multiple definition of `gen9_hevc_encoder_kernels'; ./.libs/libi965_drv_video.a(libi965_drv_video_la-gen9_hevc_enc_kernels_binary.o):(.rodata+0x0): first defined here
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
There seems to be a fix for it, not sure if you imported it already https://github.com/intel/intel-vaapi-driver/issues/503

Thanks for looking into it!

exist not so much solution for old G45:

can you try install libva1 https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/libva1/ and older driver: https://bitbucket.org/alium/g45-h264/downloads/intel-driver-g45-h264-1.8.2.tar.gz

Maybe will Chromium works.

Or you can try use newest firefox under wayland (have VAAPI support, but no X11 support).

Or you can try https://bitbucket.org/alium/g45-h264/downloads/intel-driver-g45-h264-2.4.0-EXPERIMENTAL.tar.gz with enabled VPP for G45 (should add VAProfileNone). I am not sure if that will works (probably on 99% not), but volunteers can test it :-)

you just need modify in PKGBUILD source=() and generate new sums

Package builds fine with intel-gpu-tools installed, at least for me.

apart from this, thanks for all.

@Martine @alium I am using vaapi and chromium since too much time ago. But.. there is a problem since a few months, it's the exact thing that martine said. Do you know something about this?

@alium works : ) Thank you very much!
