Hi Olivier,
As per your comment here: https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/desktop-team-
updates-monday-2nd-november-2020/19154/7 I tried this with the
latest/edge version of the snap:
$ snap info chromium
...
tracking: latest/edge
refresh-date: today at 10:13 CET
channels:
latest/stable: 86.0.4240.183 2020-11-04 (1382) 252MB -
latest/candidate: 86.0.4240.183 2020-11-04 (1382) 252MB -
latest/beta: 87.0.4280.47 2020-11-05 (1385) 254MB -
latest/edge: 88.0.4315.5 2020-11-06 (1386) 256MB -
installed: 88.0.4300.0 (1380) 256MB -
I'm on Ubuntu 20.04.1 and when I run it, I see the following errors:
$ LIBVA_MESSAGING_LEVEL=2 snap run chromium
...
libva info: VA-API version 1.9.0
libva info: Trying to open
/snap/chromium/1380/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/iHD_drv_video.so
libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1
libva info: Trying to open

[130715:130715:1106/111245.061240:ERROR:vaapi_wrapper.cc(549)] vaInitialize
failed: unknown libva error
...
I don't really get why it's searching for the *_drv_video.so when the
files there all of the *_dri.so kind:
$ ls /snap/chromium/1380/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/
i915_dri.so kms_swrast_dri.so r200_dri.so radeon_dri.so
virtio_gpu_dri.so
i965_dri.so nouveau_dri.so r300_dri.so radeonsi_dri.so vmwgfx_dri.so
iris_dri.so nouveau_vieux_dri.so r600_dri.so swrast_dri.so
I do have an Intel HD Graphics 620 and here is my vainfo:
