Ubuntu 64b Gnome Desktop on Rpi 4 graphical issues #31

Closed shadekh closed 4 years ago

shadekh commented 4 years ago

I just installed the default ubuntu 20.04 64bit Gnome on my rpi 4 8gb via desktopify , and had issues like frequent desktop redraws. I know that Gnome is more recommended, but have been using gnome since long, and I wondered if this is fixable ?

Yes, what it seems to be, is that it's software rendering, so graphic performance doesn't work as it should.

So when they say: "We have hardware acceleration and fakeKMS" It's just software rendering.

Perhaps wait until it's solved.

This is now resolved via an updated kernel is available that enables V3D on the Pi 4.
