@Michele: Thanks, that's it. You're my personal hero of the week (-:

** Package changed: libglvnd (Ubuntu) => nux (Ubuntu)

** Summary changed:

- Upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04 disables hardware acceleration on Intel Graphics
+ Upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04, then uninstalling unity disables hardware acceleration

** Description changed:

  After upgrading from 16.04 to 18.04 on a very plain Intel Skylake
  graphics, hardware acceleration is gone. Glxinfo and System Information
  report 'llvmpipe' (software rasterizer)
+ 
+ It is caused by the file
+ /etc/X11/Xsession.d/50_check_unity_support
+ which can be deleted and then this problem goes away.
