Hello, I am trying to activate hardware accelerated WebGL on Chromium Web Browser In chrome://gpu, I have the following statuses: Graphics Feature Status Canvas: Software only, hardware acceleration unavailable. Compositing: Software only, hardware acceleration unavailable. 3D CSS: Unavailable.
Apr 25, 2017 - Try opening chrome://gpu/ in Chrome and read through the problems detected. Under Problems detected, you get quite some information that can point you in the right. Chrome definitely supports WebGL on OSX, and I can confirm that your Mac. By clicking 'Post Your Answer', you acknowledge that you have read our.
Hardware acceleration unavailable. CSS Animation: Software only, hardware acceleration unavailable. WebGL: Unavailable. Hardware acceleration disabled.
WebGL multisampling: Unavailable. Hardware acceleration unavailable. Flash 3D: Unavailable. Hardware acceleration unavailable. Flash Stage3D: Unavailable. Hardware acceleration unavailable. Texture Shading: Unavailable.
Hardware acceleration unavailable. Undefined: Software only, hardware acceleration unavailable. Problems Detected GPU process was unable to boot.
Access to GPU disallowed. WebGL has been disabled, either via about:flags or command line.
In chrome://flags, I did a couple of things including: Enable: Override software rendering list Enabled: GPU compositing on all pages Enabled: Threaded compositing Enable: GPU Accelerated SVG Filters Enable: WebGL Note: I also played around with. There has been work going on at a slow pace to make WebGL feasible on the Pi, but not in the X versions of applications such as web browsers due to the inability to substantially accelerate X using the GPU caused by the pixel-by-pixel rendering tendency as X was designed and implemented. Instead, WebGL will likely first appear within ports of Chromium OS (not the Chromium web browser, although my understanding is that this will eventually happen), Firefox OS (not the Firefox web browser), Qt5, etc. Here's a link to some demos of early Boot 2 Gecko (b2g) work on the Firefox OS from August 2012: The executable can be downloaded from: However, this only works on a non-Raspbian earlier armel version of Debian Wheezy for the Pi, with instructions for running b2g here: Firefox OS for the Pi was estimated at that time to be on-track for release sometime in 2013, but I haven't seen any more mention of the status of the project since then. At our monthly Raspberry Jam Silicon Valley a week ago, I may have seen some WebGL running in a pre-alpha version of an upcoming Chromium port (I don't know whether it was the browser or OS). I was torn between several tasks at the time, so I didn't get to focus my full attention on it, but I'll ask the folks working on it what it really was.
They may not want to say any more due to the early nature of the work, though.
Security researchers identified serious vulnerability in -which is turned on by default for Firefox and Chrome browsers – allows attackers to run malicious code on users Computers. We’ve covered how to disable, here is how to disable WebGL in browser. WebGL brings hardware accelerated 3D graphics to the browsers without need of installing additional software. A Security consultancy company Context has more details about the vulanerability in WebGL and the best way to stay secure is to by disabling WebGL in Browsers. According to the page at Context “this vulnerability allows attackers to provide malicious code via a web browser which allows attack on the GPU and graphics drivers. These attacks on the GPU via WebGL can render entire machines unusable.” Disabling WebGL in Google Chrome November 30, 2017 Update: Google has added WebGL 2.0 support to Chrome browser in version 56, and offered an option to disable WebGL in flags.
FYI, Chromium team has recently removed the WebGL 2.0 flag (#enable-es3-apis) from Chrome 63. If you’re desperate to turn off WebGL in Chrome 63 or later versions, you can by installing the below extension.
After that you can visit to confirm WebGL status in Chrome. May 31, 2017 Update: In Chrome 57 or above, 1. Visit chrome://flags or chrome://flags/#enable-es3-apis 2.
Use to Ctrl+f to find webGL2.0 setting and set it to Disabled. Relaunch Chrome browser. Right click on Chrome shortcut on the desktop, click Properties append. Disable-webgl after chrome.exe in the Target field as shown below in the screenshot. Click “Apply” and ‘Ok’ to save changes.

Update: Even better one, try this: just visit chrome://flags/#disable-webgl in browser, click on ‘Enable’ link, scroll down to bottom and click on ‘Relaunch now’ to restart the browser for the changes to apply. Update: The flag is no longer available, it has been removed by Google, you better try running Chrome with command line switch mentioned above to disable webGL in browser. We can confirm this will disable WebGL for Chrome as you may still get “Browser could not initialize WebGL” message when you run any one of in Chrome, check the screenshot below. We’ll update this post if we found more official information if any from Chrome team or from other sources on the current issue. I tried your method, and it needs a few tips at least – especially as it’s getting passed around the web. — your blog is converting double-dashes to long dash, so that copy-paste of the shortcut command line addition fails.
It needs to read dash-dash-disable-dash-webgl. – To use the test page, you actually have to load it and then click the big blue Launch Experiment button. If WebGL is successfully disabled, you’ll get a pop-up alert that says ‘Could not initialize WebGL, sorry:-( ‘ – On Windows 7 if you’ve pinned Chrome to the it can be tricky to find the correct shortcut to modify. To do it, unpin Chrome. Then use search for Google Chrome, and right-click the shortcut (not the exe) that shows in the search. Then search for it again, and click to start Chrome. Now you can pin Chrome to the Taskbar again while it is running.
Close and open Chrome again, then test to be sure you got it. Hopefully Google will use their auto-updating first to lock off WebGL by default, and then later return it if later when sanitized. And putting the on/off in a configurable option, rather than only in the command line. Regards. Dale June 17, 2011 @ 7:51 pm.
