Mir should eventually support most systems from the past decade or so, within reason. I think this bug still looks fixable but we haven't made any progress as no Mir developer has access to such a system to test. And I have spent several weekends already gathering up old hardware trying to reproduce just this bug.
Alternatively, if i865 hardware acceleration can't be resurrected then it will eventually fall back to software rendering (which isn't implemented yet). But I think we'd aim to fix hardware rendering for you instead. ** Changed in: mir Assignee: Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt) => (unassigned) ** Changed in: mir Importance: Low => Medium ** Changed in: unity-system-compositor Importance: Low => Medium ** Changed in: mir (Ubuntu) Importance: Low => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1212753 Title: [i865] unity-system-compositor fails to start: Failed to choose ARGB EGL config To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mir/+bug/1212753/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
