@dos Could the hardware acceleration be included into gnome web or something?
@briana Sure, it "just" needs some work :)
@dos Famous last words :P
@dos is that with upstream Mesa and 5.7 kernel?
@craftyguy Upstream Mesa 20.0 and our kernel tree based on 5.7-rc6 (but should be pretty much the same on 5.6 already).
I have some hacks that enable 60 FPS refresh rate though, it's normally limited to 30 for reasons unrelated to performance.
@spacemanspiffy @purism Firefox isn't that smooth yet. It defaults to GPU accel being off and you can only force the old OpenGL compositor on - no WebRender yet.
However, I'd expect it to become just as smooth once etnaviv and WebRender start to play well with each other :)
@spacemanspiffy @purism Also, recent dmabuf improvements in Firefox on Wayland should have a positive impact - but I've tested only the ESR version so far which doesn't have those.
@dos This looks amazing!
@dos Impressive, thanks! There's also a command line switch to enable the better looking overlay scrollbar.
This is unmodified desktop Chromium straight from the Debian repositories.
Video decoding is unaccelerated yet, but 1080p videos seem to work well even without it (although power hungry a bit :)).
