Missing video hardware acceleration
Any suggestions on dmesg and lspci commands I need to run to figure out what I need to resolve this. Plus any other commands that may help.
When I figure out what I need I'll be back for help how to get it.

usually /var/logXorg.0.log should give a clue
othrwise lspci | grep -i vga or smthng like to see what sort of hardware and lsmod to see what kernel modules are in use..

Ed_P,
Add /etc/profile.d/intel-media.sh
Code: Select all
# getmod -m intel-media-driver
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
export LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=iHD
Sorry, my English is bad.

Thank you guys, I will keep you posted on my results.
Added in 2 hours 12 minutes 41 seconds:
Ok, what I've got.
"vga" was a better match than my using "video" for my searches and shows a match in lspci.
I created the intel-media-driver module using getmod as suggested and put it in the modules folder but it didn't load. I suspect it was the "zstd" error. How do I handle that problem?

Oh no, Porteus 4.0 is old/outdated (xorg-mesa), doesn't support the latest hardware (hardware acceleration).

um, this isn't about "video hardware acceleration", but your video card (kernel)driver not loading (probly using vesa as a fallback)
intel-media-driver is just for "hardware"(ie. graphic card) decoding of media(ie. a video(movie)) with mpv or the like.
more likely, some missing firmware, or old xorg driver doesn't work with newer hardware.. same upshot tho, for the second..

Thanks ncmp.
What do I search for to verify that?
Is there a way to create the missing driver as a module from 5.0 in 4.0?
