Cyrille37's questions

I've read some questions, like #1297875, but finally not found how to replace graphics driver i915 with the iris driver on Ubuntu 20.10 running on a i7-1165G7 that bring a Intel Iris Xe Grahpics PCI id [8086:9a49].

• Should I use https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers ?
• some changes in X11 config ?
• Or perhaps I misunderstand... kernel use i915 and iris driver is only for user-space OpenGL with MESA ... As I read at https://linuxreviews.org/Intel_Iris

Any idea please ? Thanks.

UPDATE after installed oibaf drivers

I miss understand something ... As we can see below, the i915 driver is used but for OpenGL it is a "Mesa Intel Xe Graphics (TGL GT2)"...

After reading this page at intel.com Intel® Iris® Xe MAX Graphics with Linux it seems "normal" that driver "i915" is used for Xe Graphics as they say:

While support for the Intel Iris Xe Graphics processor has already been integrated into Linux* and integrated into Linux-based distributions such as Ubuntu 20.04.1, enabling work for the Intel Iris Xe MAX graphics processor in Linux* is ongoing.

Do you know a Caja plugin that showing file's EXIF metadata in properties window ?

In Nautilus there is a tab "Audio" or "Image" where metadata are displayed.

Thanks

On my Ubuntu-MATE Clevo laptop there is the program N151ZU-fan-controller that logging a message 2 times by second.

I filtered it in rsyslog configuration in /etc/rsyslog.d/10-N151ZU-fan-controller.conf with line :programname, contains, "N151ZU-fan-controller" stop

But I could not find howto filter it's logs in journald (systemd-journald) ? 2 lines by second take much volume on disk ...

Thanks
