I don't know if that is your issue, but there are freeworld packages on rpmfusion that restore the functionality. But, they require a dnf swap to do so. dnf swap mesa-va-drivers mesa-va-drivers-freeworld dnf swap mesa-vdpau-drivers mesa-vdpau-drivers-freeworld If you just upgraded, then you probably don't have an older kernel to try, but you could try a newer kernel by updating. Also, you could get an older kernel at https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=8 by downloading the kernel rpms you have installed and install it with dnf -C install [kernel rpms you downloaded] in the directory where the rpms are. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
