 |
|
After updating media-libs/mesa from version 24.0.9 to version 24.1.3 and above, the following problems appeared:
- the screen freezes after launching firefox
- the screen freezes when playing videos in telegram-desktop-bin
If media-libs/mesa is built without the "vaapi" USE flag, then the problems disappear.
What to do? Disable vaapi? |

This was due to some library linking changes within mesa. The next release (and stable release) will have merge request targets/va: Build va driver into libgallium when building with dri which will fix the issue. Either add the merge request as a user patch under /etc/portage/patches or use 9999 in the meantime to keep VA-API happy.
