Warning: this is not recommended! (see blacklists note below).Īctivate the Override software rendering list setting (you'll need to relaunch Chrome for any changes to take effect)įor more information, see: Chrome Help: WebGL and 3D graphics.Įnsure that its value is false (any changes take effect immediately without relaunching Firefox) If your graphics card/drivers are blacklisted, you can override the blacklist.
If the status is not "Hardware accelerated", then the Problems Detected list (below the the Graphics Feature Status list) may explain why hardware acceleration is unavailable.
Unavailable - WebGL is not available in hardware or software. See here for more info: "For software rendering of WebGL, Chrome uses SwiftShader, a software GL rasterizer." Software only, hardware acceleration unavailable - WebGL is enabled, but running in software. Hardware accelerated - WebGL is enabled and hardware accelerated (running on the graphics card). Inspect the WebGL item in the Graphics Feature Status list. Enable - Override software rendering list Here you will have to change Default to Enabled in the drop down. In newer versions, this option of Disable WebGL will not be available, you will instead have to search for WebGL 2.0 (or some different version) In the System section, ensure the Use hardware acceleration when available checkbox is checked (you'll need to relaunch Chrome for any changes to take effect)Įnsure that Disable WebGL is not activated (you'll need to relaunch Chrome for any changes to take effect) In the meanwhile, use Firefox if you can, and check the link here discussing blacklists on WebGL, you may also want to report this as a bug to the developers.Click the Advanced ▼ button at the bottom of the page So you might wanna try something similar for Chromium. I do know that for Google Chrome the command is google-chrome -enable-webgl -ignore-gpu-blacklist You will have to find a way to get Chromium to start while ignoring the blacklist. If it is not, this likely because chromium has blacklisted the RPi's GPU which is why you are getting the following prompt **failed to retrieve device information**īecause your Pi's GPU has been blacklisted. Most people report the issue to do with their graphics card, you can see this issue by going to chrome://gpu/ and seeing if hardware acceleration is enabled for WebGL. Afterwards, uninstall then reinstall chromium to see if anything has changed: sudo apt remove chromium-browser Test and check each driver accordingly for function. You might wanna check your chrome://flash page, and see if you are using any drivers that you shouldn't. Seems like your not the only one with this problem.
