How to enable Hardware Acceleration for Intel drivers?
I wasn't convinced, so I dug through some Github issues until I found this one h624 support for GM45 - issue #544, in which someone mentioned that the crocus driver supports VAAPI but several people mentioned that it seems like h264 decoding doesn't work.

libva breaks stuff on debian 11
i965-va-driver is dead and no longer maintained by Intel. Version 2.4.1 is the last release of that driver (see https://github.com/intel/intel-vaapi-driver/releases).

Firefox Fedora don't utilize the HW acceleration
libva-intel-driver didn't work for me, but installing intel-media-driver from nonfree rpm-fusion seemed to do the trick. leaving this here for anyone with the same issue.

How to get HW acceleration working?
And I have already complied and install tar ball from https://github.com/intel/intel-vaapi-driver. So, libva-driver-intel is trying to install this right?

Zypper - again .. Does not respect "--from"?
In general, Vaapi stuff is really hard to get running. Theres a bunch of different drivers per vendor and different (package-)names for the same thing in different distros, most tutorials dont even mention the GPU theyre using and point to other drivers .. Its a mess really. For example if you google Intel Vaapi the first result is: https://github.com/intel/intel-vaapi-driver. Which is the wrong one. Of course if would be to comfortable for them to mention the supported models in their readme. I have an Intel RKL GPU so I need intel-media-driver, found that out through trial and error.

Is it possible to upgrade Mesa?
That would replace the default Mesa with your build. I recently added these instructions to the mesa-git repository: https://gitlab.com/freedesktop-sdk/mesa-git-extension. What I personally do, instead of replacing the default mesa extension, I build mesa-git using the version of mesa I want to test, and then I start the apps with mesa-git. That way I have both the default Mesa extension and my own build, and can use whichever I want in any specific situation.

Compiling mesa-git with H264 and H265 for flatpak
Make sure you have a clean working tree. A note on that, upstream still haven't accepted my MR on the branch release/21.08, so there isn't a .gitignore file on this branch like the one I created on the other branches. It's better to copy this file from master and paste it back after checking out the 21.08 branch, this will make it easier to check if the working tree is clean. This won't be necessary after this MR gets merged.

What is the state of raytracing with proton in 2022?
22.1 > 22.2 shouldn’t be a major upgrade? Wouldn’t that be 22.x > 23.x? Also there’s a mesa-git flatpak you can use. https://gitlab.com/freedesktop-sdk/mesa-git-extension
