I have done configuration file as shown in intel Configuration

System suffers glitchy performance, tearing video even after properly choosing accel method, tear free options.

Same system works smoothly with support intel drivers on boot from windows drive. So is it the driver content making a difference here?

Re: intel g33 onboard graphics acceleration not working [SOLVED]

Hmm... Can you check the symlink chain with e.g. ls -l /usr/lib/libGL.so, you should end up at /usr/lib/mesa/libGL.so.1.2

Another possibility is that you currently run on wayland which would explain the output you are receving, switch that in GDM on login and see if that improves things. If it doesn't, remove all xorg configuration you made and post the Xorg.0.log after a restart.

Re: intel g33 onboard graphics acceleration not working [SOLVED]

That worked. I guess wayland needs a little more work in supporting older hardware section. sticking to xorg till then. Thankyou.

Re: intel g33 onboard graphics acceleration not working [SOLVED]

You get that output in wayland because GLX in wayland is an emulation - that's not a bug.
Check the output of "eglinfo" and dmesg reg. dri issues.

@seth eglinfo command not found, does that come when the enlightenment library is installed??

Only this seemed relevant in dmesg:

Re: intel g33 onboard graphics acceleration not working [SOLVED]

No sorry - eglinfo isn't provided by any archlinux package; apparently not even some aur. My bad.
"es2_info" reports GLES rather than EGL but would have sufficed in this case (and is part of mesa demos)

If you're not on software rendering, the performance issues will likely just have had unrelated reasons.

Does 'GL_RENDERER: Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.9, 128 bits)' mean the software rendering is ON..
Doen't wayland render from hardware at all or is it available on latest chipsets only?

I went through the documentation Wayland architecture. Hardware enabling is vendor implementation.
Is what I have is an issue or is it an artifact from the still in-the-developement software wayland?

Re: intel g33 onboard graphics acceleration not working [SOLVED]

Afaics the status quo is that all but the gallium drivers have been dropped from Mesa EGL but there's no (usable) intel gallium driver, so this seems to be the expectable situation, yes.

es2_info however also ("still") links X11, so it very likely to be "trough X11" just as glxinfo...
The "vendor" in this case is gnome, but it simply builds on libEGL and if that only provides llvm-based rendering, well.

Re: intel g33 onboard graphics acceleration not working [SOLVED]

Well. now, wayland renders through gallium drivers, so it is showing that information in my system properties properly(I thought gallium was an 'ati' specific). There are no usable intel gallium drivers yet, so its a matter of waiting until someone makes a good driver.  Did I get that right so far?

update: The graphics show up and works properly on xorg. In wayland it still show as gallium though.
