Presumably your compositor is using llvmpipe software rendering if it's so slow.
Unaccelerated Xorg using something like the vesa driver is slow too.
- swiley 6y agoI own machines that have no hardware acceleration (I had to remove the kernel modules and use the efi framebuffer because the drivers would crash.) Xorg is absolutely usable on such machines with compositing disabled, wayland is not.
