[Mesa-users] Virtio-GPU Venus how to install in chrome os crostini?

[Reggie Wong]

 Hi, i do know about enabling it by installing arch linux/container. 

I wanted to see if it is possible to install the driver in the default debian container though, I haven't found any info on that yet.

Just wanted to see how it works out.

Is it possible to get it to work with default debian container? Thanks for any good help.

I don't know if this matters, but I have a hp chromebook 11a g8 ee with amd a6 processor

There are guides on how to do that if you search for "crostini
vulkan".  But I don't recommend doing that as end users.

Also, the guest kernel driver does not support implicit fencing yet.
As a result, venus waits for gpu rendering before presenting, which
can cut the frame rate to half or worse.
