Installation of intel-media-driver
This package takes a long time to build because it compiles code specific to each individual generation of Intel GPUs and for a variety of media codecs.
If you know the model of your Intel GPU, you can pass the <option>-D{GEN{8,9,10,11,12},MTL}=OFF</option> option to the <command>cmake</command> command but leaving the option for your GPU out. Note that the <quote>GEN</quote> number here is the generation of the GPU, not the CPU. For example, with an Intel Core i7-1065G7 CPU shipping a 11th-generation Intel GPU, the <option>-D{GEN{8,9,10,12},MTL}=OFF</option> option can be used so the code specific to the other generations of Intel GPUs won't be built.
Install <application>intel-media-driver</application> by running the following commands:
<userinput>mkdir build &amp;&amp;
cd build &amp;&amp;

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$XORG_PREFIX \
-DINSTALL_DRIVER_SYSCONF=OFF \
-DBUILD_TYPE=Release \
-Wno-dev .. &amp;&amp;
make</userinput>
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user:
<userinput>make install</userinput>
