[Bug 2077538] Re: gnome-remote-desktop uses software rendering

 

That's a question for @enr0n.

The patch is non-trivial and has already required 2 non-trivial rebases after other changes from upstream; 
I wouldn't want to impose a maintenance burden on our systemd maintainer(s). So Nick please check if you're comfortable with picking up this patch. You will first need to update systemd 258.

My own priority would be to land it upstream.

I agree that we should have this bug resolved for 26.04.

  gnome-remote-desktop uses software rendering

Bug description:
  gnome-remote-desktop uses software rendering by default, which is
  incredible slow on some hardwares. If the user is added to the video
  and render group, graphics acceleration is used. These groups are not
  in the default, so I think it would make sense to add them.
