vainfo:

libva info: VA-API version 0.39.4
libva info: va_getDriverName() returns -1
libva info: User requested driver 'i965'
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_drv_video.so
libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_0_39

Sorry, seems I keep running into build compatibility issues with older Ubuntu versions.
