Workarounds for integrated Intel GPU (iGPU): Screen distortion:


Or directly intel informations on the linux driver: More options on the arch package man page: pixelated graphics, corrupt text, etc.), try using UXA instead, which can be done by adding the following line to your configuration file, if you want only the tear free option to be enabled do not add the line Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"īut the rest you see here: sudo nano /etc/X11//nf Section "Device" If you experience issues with the default SNA (e.g. In some cases you have screen tearing caused by SNA acceleration method is used (default) There is a huge amount of different hardware for Intel GPU chipsets, so if you have an issue it is highly recommended to research your specific chipset and consult the arch wiki for information on different hardware. See, ĮndeavourOS is installing this xf86 driver by default, to be compatible with all devices, but as mentioned below it is better to uninstall it for better performance. That’s why it is recommended not to install the xf86-video-intel driver, and instead falling back on the modesetting driver for Gen4 and newer GPUs (GMA 3000 from 2006 and newer). Since Intel provides and supports open source drivers, Intel graphics are essentially plug-and-play.

How to install in Ubuntu/Linux Mint? To install Intel Graphics Installer (Version 2.0.4) in Ubuntu 17.04 Zesty/16.10 Yakkety/16.First of all, a link to the detailed Archwiki: Wayland is the ongoing research project on next generation of window systems and composersĬheck hardware compatibility, the installer may or may not support your card.VA API is the part of the stack responsible for hardware-accelerated video rendering, pre- and post-processing and output.Cairo Graphics is the 2D rendering and acceleration library.LibDRM is the middleware responsible for conversations between user applications and kernel driver, itself.XF86-Video-Intel, also known as DDX, is the driver responsible for the 2D rendering within the X window system.

Mesa is the library responsible for 3D rendering, OpenGL compatibility, GLES, and all the 3d-related components of Graphics on Linux and Unix systems.Kernel driver is the core of the Intel Linux Graphics project, responsible for: all interactions with the hardware, driving different video outputs, mode setting, and converting bits into on-screen visible pixels.Current OTC graphics work covers a broad range of efforts and projects, such as:
