Mesa in Ubuntu has a patch for i915 that disables OpenGL 2.0 but not GLES 2,0. Thats why all mir clients and the unity8 session starts up.. since mirserver always use GL|ES.
Regular qt clients do the EGL init in a different path and they insist on GL 2.0. When you recompile mesa without that patch you get the unity8 desktop but it is just too slow.. It would be better to implement a less demanding QtQuick backend .. and/or use a different mir compositor.. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1549455 Title: Unity 8/Mir doesn't load on Intel Pineview graphics To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mir/+bug/1549455/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
