Pipelight

Hardware Acceleration NVIDIA drivers direct rendering disabled

Asked by Grayson on 2014-12-16

I have pipelight installed and working if I disable hardware acceleration. I would like to have it for HD streaming on Netflix.

I am using the proprietary NVIDIA drivers, 343.36. I have an NVIDIA GTX 970, which is on the whitelist for hardware acceleration. If I turn hardware acceleration on Netflix just sits at a black screen. I do have the 32-bit openGL libraries installed at /usr/lib32/

Here is a log of when I launch Firefox and try to play a video on Netflix with acceleration enabled:
