[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1768610@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

After an upgrade from 17.10 to 18.04, I noticed that all gnome windows
animations were gone.  After some digging, it seems that gnome-session
incorrectly assumes that my graphics has no acceleration, when in fact
it does: it's a i5-2520M CPU @ 2.50GHz with Intel integrated graphics
(i915 driver).

I've tried this with and without the xserver-xorg-video-intel package
(a.k.a. Intel driver) with the same behavior.

The output of gnome-session-check-accelerated is: llvmpipe (LLVM 6.0,
256 bits)  however the system should have DRM 2.0 capability.

GL checks (e.g. glxinfo, glxgears produce the expected output from a
working DRM system).

mesa-utils and mesa-utils-extra are both installed.

I can't find a work around.  Perhaps there is something wrong with my
install/upgrade?

Everything else works fine, although the graphical transitions are no
longer smooth.  But it would be nice to restore the expected behavior.

I have attached the log of 'journalctl -b0'
