Description Ilya Bizyaev 2022-08-27 15:59:27 UTC
My laptop has an integrated Intel GPU, which works perfectly fine in the X11 session. In the Wayland session, however, KInfoCenter indicates that llvmpipe is used. I do not use Wayland regularly, but when I last tried one of the past Plasma releases, there was no such problem.

Oops, please ignore: there's some poor timing involved. I did a system update, rebooted and decided to try Wayland, but little did I know that the update broke my graphics for X11 as well :(
