Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: This pertains to the hwacc branches of snap_from_source chromium builds. Following the guide-0.9.1, we switched from system gbm to minigbm. (These switches are in args.gn) use_system_minigbm = false use_intel_minigbm = true use_amdgpu_minigbm = true This enables us to better support intel hardware. However, there seems to be a regression on other gpus. Chromium will switch to software compositing on amd. When I revert back to system gbm, I get hardware compositing again. See attached screenshot. To reproduce: build chromium in two different ways, and compare the output from the chrome://gpu url. tested on: Radeon RX580 GPU.
