[SOLVED] No HW acceleration when using Intel GPU on 5510
Hi, I can't get HW acceleration using Intel GPU on the Precision 5510
$ /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p

Since Nvidia drivers are not supported by DisplayLink, need to use the Intel drivers.

Looks like I got it working by running the following command:
$ glxinfo | grep OpenGL
