I'm currently running on Raspbian 11 trying to set flags for chromium-browser to enable hardware acceleration. I've tried editing /etc/chromium.d/00-rpi-vars according to this solution, yet it doesn't seem to work. When I open chrome://gpu I get

  • Canvas: Software only. Hardware acceleration disabled
  • Canvas out-of-process rasterization: Disabled
  • Direct Rendering Display Compositor: Disabled
  • Compositing: Software only. Hardware acceleration disabled
  • Multiple Raster Threads: Disabled
  • Out-of-process Rasterization: Disabled
  • OpenGL: Disabled
  • Rasterization: Software only. Hardware acceleration disabled
  • Raw Draw: Disabled
  • Skia Renderer: Enabled
  • Video Decode: Software only. Hardware acceleration disabled
  • Video Encode: Software only. Hardware acceleration disabled
  • Vulkan: Disabled
  • WebGL: Disabled
  • WebGL2: Disabled

along with 3 problems detected

  • Accelerated video encode has been disabled, either via blocklist, about:flags or the command line. Disabled Features: video_encode
  • Gpu composting has been disabled, either via blocklist, about:flags or the command line. The browser will fall back to software composting and hardware acceleration will be unavailable. Disabled Features: gpu_composting
  • GPU process was unable to boot: GPU process crashed too many times with SwiftShader. Disabled Features: all

How to fix these problems and enable hardware acceleration via terminal?
