[Bug 965566] New: WebGL and hardware acceleration not available in Chromium
http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=965566 Bug ID: 965566 Summary: WebGL and hardware acceleration not available in Chromium Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.1 Hardware: x86-64 OS: openSUSE 42.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: X11 Applications Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: studio@anchev.net QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Created attachment 664705 --> http://bugzilla.suse.com/attachment.cgi?id=664705&action=edit Google Chrome and Chromium outputs of chrome://gpu UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/48.0.2564.82 Safari/537.36 Example URL: Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Open any page with WebGL content or test with: http://get.webgl.org/ http://webglreport.com/ 2. Check chrome://flags - yes, Override software rendering list is Enabled but that doesn't help 3. Check the same thing in Google Chrome and Firefox 4. Compare chrome://gpu in Google Chrome and Chromium (screenshots attached) WebGL doesn't work in Chromium but works in Google Chrome (and Firefox). Also hardware acceleration is unavailable in Chromium for some reason although both Chromium and Google Chrome use identical settings. I am attaching screenshots of chrome://gpu output from both Google Chrome and Chromium for comparison. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

It seems I am again being sent back from code.google.com to here:
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=585046#c6
They say "We don't provide support for those - please file a bug with your distribution, or reproduce the issue with your own build."
Looks like the same issue as in Bug#966082. Btw, do you have vdpau-video installed? Try to remove that as a test. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 966082 *** -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I am not so sure. That bug is marked as fixed but it seems it is not.

I didn't have it installed. But I installed it after I read your reply. It didn't change anything. With or without it - the issue remains. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

That bug has only been fixed for 13.2 by not patching chromium to use libva any more on 13.2. But you are using Leap 42.1, no? The stacktrace is exactly the same... I suppose it happens because libva fails to open the driver: libva info: VA-API version 0.38.0 libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0 libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib64/dri/nvidia_drv_video.so libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Thanks for explaining. Yes, I am using Leap 42.1. I hope you can fix this :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I'm not a chromium maintainer. But it seems like it would be a good idea to remove libva support completely again. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

As soon as the build in network:chromium is finished, I will push it out as a maintenance update.
Sounds great Raymond! Thanks a lot. Looking forward to it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Unfortunately it seems that this might be true on Tumbleweed, but for the older builds this is definitely not the case.
Well, it might also depend on the actual graphics card/driver that's being used, I suppose... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
