Xorg graphics driver? - rdenthem - 08-28-2020
It seems my Xorg is picking up the swrast driver and it's extremely slow. What is the correct driver to use on the PBP for Xorg? I see there is an xorg-video-armsoc driver in github, is that the correct one? Or is wayland simply better supported at this point?

Just checked wich one I use on my Debian install (with OpenGLES-accelerated compositing and all, but in Xorg rather than Wayland - not everything I use works well with Wayland yet), and apparently it's xserver-xorg-video-dummy o_O

Interesting, I can try it out. Without having mesa-git installed I think it used the modesetting driver and while it didn't seem to be 2D accelerated at all, it was lightspeed faster than the swrast driver that is now being picked up! Hopefully others can chime in if there are other drivers.
