My Laptop has a 4200M and is using that iGPU. I've felt like I needed a new laptop after an update because everything felt slow, sluggish and not good to use, imagine an XP era Eee netbook running Vista, that slow, so bad even my brother complained that I need a new device.
After a while while fucking around with the login-screen I found out that for some reason that update changed the selected DE to use gayland instead of X11. I changed back to X11 and that 12 fucking years old laptop is flying again as if was just 2 or 3 years old. I do not know why, but gayland literally leeches compute and makes old hardware impossible to use. It is not a drop-in replacement and it will, same as Windows, cause a lot of e-Waste.
gayland needs to be stopped, people need to come back to their senses and just clean up X11.
