[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2006646] Re: hwacc branch builds that use minigbm will switch to software compositor on amd.
** Changed in: chromium-browser (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2006646 Title: hwacc branch builds that use minigbm will switch to software compositor on amd. Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: Fix Released 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.
