I used intel xorg driver (xserver-xorg-video-intel) plus i965-va-driver on Debian Bookworm; everything worked fine, 2D, 3D, video acceleration.
After updating to Trixie, intel xorg driver (same setup as bookworm) doesn't provide acceleration. glxinfo shows LLVMpipe instead of Mesa Intel(R) HD Graphics 630 (KBL GT2) (that's the graphic device on my laptop). I switched to modesetting as suggested for years on Debian; 2D, 3D acceleration works fine on modesetting, but as expected, I have screen tearing on videos.
I'd prefer to avoid xorg compositors. Wayland is not an option for me due to certain apps I use and still don't work well on it.
Any ideas how to have acceleration using intel driver on Trixie, as in Bookworm?
