Intel GPU Issue

English Hardware
#1

I seem to have a similar problem, but nomodeset does not seem to be the reason on my system. here my graphics data (as recommended by mrmazda):

~> inxi -GSaz
System:    Kernel: 5.14.21-150400.24.60-default x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 7.5.0

           OpenGL: renderer: llvmpipe (LLVM 11.0.1 256 bits) v: 4.5 Mesa 21.2.4 compat-v: 3.1 direct render: Yes

I have also run

~> grep i915 /lib/modprobe.d/*

Which gives no output, implying that i915 is not blacklisted if I’m not mistaken. Does anyone have an idea on how to solve this? If this post is missing any information please let me know, since this is my first post here.
Thanks in advance for any help :slight_smile:

Intel GPU driver not loading.

On Leap, inxi -U needs to be run with root permissions to upgrade it from upstream to a non-broken state for use with -G. If standard repos ever get an inxi upgrade, it should soon after have -U run again. Its version increases often, with both fixes and improvements that TW enjoys, but not Leap.

Alder Lake in Leap 15.4 needs either a 15.5 kernel, a TW kernel, or a backport kernel. If you download this repo file and move or copy it to /etc/zypp/repos.d/ using root permission and then do a repo refresh (the file omits an autorefresh= directive) you will have enabled the kernel backport standard repo so that kernel-default-6.2.11 can be installed in 15.4 using zypper or YaST.

Zypper ar (addrepo) is the standard way to add an optional repo, but I use customized repos from my LAN server cache, so never need to know the full syntax required.
