I have a dual gpu system. It has a 2nd generation Sandy Bridge iGPU and an nvidia 650ti. The Nvidia gpu is connected to the display and is using the proprietary drivers. I'm trying to use the iGPU for video encoding.



I have installed the va driver using



sudo apt-get install i965-va-driver


If I run vainfo it returns:



libva info: VA-API version 1.1.0
libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/nvidia_drv_video.so
libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1
vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit


But if I run LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=i965 vainfo it returns:



libva info: VA-API version 1.1.0
libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva info: User requested driver 'i965'
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_drv_video.so
libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_1_1
libva error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_drv_video.so init failed
libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1
vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit
