[yocto] Graphics Acceleration on crownbay - 1.2M2 + meta-intel tip

I am trying to get hardware accelerated graphics (video in particular)
to work on my crownbay based hardware. I have EMGD 1.10 driver
integrated and working. The evidence for this is that when I use
glxgears (form mesa-demos) I get 115 fps instead of 4-5 fps.

This is good, however, when I go over to the web2 browser (enabled by
defining WEB = "web-webkit" for recipe task-core-apps-x11-pimlico) - I
do not get graphics acceleration for javascript graphics. I also do
not get graphics acceleration when I watch an MP4 movie. I get 2-3 fps
instead of the standard 25 or 29 fps.

This was not the case when Yocto used EMGD 1.8 driver - video worked
fine - I am not sure about accelerated javascript based graphics in
browser as I was not as far ahead in the project.

Is this a known issue?

Thanks

Autif
