I have packages for Nvidia VAAPI and EGL in my system. When I manually turned it on a few months ago, the acceleration in Firefox was working. With new Nvidia drivers or whatever it broke.
I tried the 550, 560 and 565 drivers. Still the same on Xorg or Wayland. Tested with Snap and FLATPAK(ffmpeg + vaapi installed) Firefox. NVD_LOG=1 firefox libEGL warning: egl: failed to create dri2 screen or similar error on X11 with EGL. eglinfo -B -p wayland Wayland platform: EGL API version: 1.5 EGL vendor string: NVIDIA EGL version string: 1.5 EGL client APIs: OpenGL_ES OpenGL OpenGL core profile vendor: NVIDIA Corporation OpenGL core profile renderer: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti/PCIe/SSE2 OpenGL core profile version: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 565.57.01 OpenGL core profile shading language version: 4.60 NVIDIA OpenGL compatibility profile vendor: NVIDIA Corporation OpenGL compatibility profile renderer: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti/PCIe/SSE2 OpenGL compatibility profile version: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 565.57.01 OpenGL compatibility profile shading language version: 4.60 NVIDIA OpenGL ES profile vendor: NVIDIA Corporation OpenGL ES profile renderer: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti/PCIe/SSE2 OpenGL ES profile version: OpenGL ES 3.2 NVIDIA 565.57.01 OpenGL ES profile shading language version: OpenGL ES GLSL ES 3.20 similar problem https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/hardware-egl-not-working-on-wayland-libegl-warning-egl-failed-to-create-dri2-screen/262167/4 I think that you have known this problem for a long time and you have no choice but to wait for the upstream to release a new things about Nvidia? Wayland?
