I saw similar posts to this, I suspect a regression, I remember video acceleration working after just installing `intel-media-driver` and a couple of wayland dependencies like 3 years ago. Now it doesn't work. Just keeps giving this error after executing `vainfo`
Trying display: wayland
error: failed to resolve wl_drm_interface(): /usr/lib/libEGL_mesa.so.0: undefined symbol: wl_drm_interface
libva error: /usr/lib/dri/i965_drv_video.so init failed
vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit
I tried to debug it but I gave up after 3 hours, even using the `nm -D` command and all but to no avail. My computer is an underpowered one, this pc more than anything needs the video acceleration working. I'ts a shame that it doesn't work. Could somebody step me up to solve this???? :c

I tried with both `intel-media-driver` and `libva-intel-driver` (removing each other to prevent conflicts) and still no video acceleration.
Also my laptop completely freezes after `poweroff` or `reboot` is executed, but that's a different issue, it happens with fedora too, this x64 laptop acts funky with some stuff tbh. Still it's better than windows in this state, `niri` ftw~

Kinda solved by installing the patched aur package `libva-intel-driver-git`.

I'd the same error, but on a much newer CPU (Whiskey Lake).
For me the problem was I was on `libva-intel-driver` for some reason, whereas I can just use `intel-media-driver` instead.
Seems to work after that:
$ vainfo
Trying display: wayland
vainfo: VA-API version: 1.22 (libva 2.22.0)
vainfo: Driver version: Intel iHD driver for Intel(R) Gen Graphics - 24.4.4 ()
In my case the issue appeared after updating system, specifically `mesa` .
