Public bug reported: Tegra Orin platforms come in various flavor / dev kit. They all ship with a 'slightly' customized Ubuntu image. One of the customization is the addition of the Nvidia GPU drivers for Tegra.
When running chromium browser debian package (either when running 18.04, or when running 22.04 with the package fetched from this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~nteodosio/+archive/ubuntu/chromium/+packages) then chromium works with hardware acceleration, as reported in chrome://gpu: Graphics Feature Status Canvas: Hardware accelerated Canvas out-of-process rasterization: Disabled Direct Rendering Display Compositor: Disabled Compositing: Hardware accelerated Multiple Raster Threads: Enabled OpenGL: Enabled Rasterization: Hardware accelerated Raw Draw: Disabled Video Decode: Hardware accelerated Video Encode: Software only.
