I ran
Code:
apt-get install libva1 vainfo i965-va-driver libva-glx1 libva-dev
Twice, actually.
What confuses me is that vainfo and glxinfo both most of the time just say that they cannot open the screen.
In XBMC, when I run it, I cannot find any option related to VAAPI, and pressing "o" shows a very busy CPU and no signs of VAAPI, either.
But maybe I've done something conceptually run? I started with a minimal maverick install, so don't have gnome (and therefore don't need compiz). Maybe "vainfo" and "glxinfo" don't work in this environment, and I should focus on recompiling xbmc?
Edit: Just looked into your ppa and saw als libva and xbmc packages. Should I install these for sandy bridge?
