All,
Just trying to use Proxmox for my home server and found difficulties in enabling the Arrow Lake iGPU hence asking help from community.
I am using Intel Core Ultra 235 with iGPU and found that /dev/dri/card1 and /dev/dri/renderD128 are found in the system, however when I running vainfo, seem the driver is not loaded properly.

Code:
root@pve:~# ls /dev/dri/
by-path  card1  renderD128
root@pve:~# vainfo
error: can't connect to X server!
libva info: VA-API version 1.17.0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/iHD_drv_video.so
libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_drv_video.so
libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1
vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit

iGPU is found as below:

I need to have iGPU enabled for Jellyfin and Frigate LXC.

Appreciate all help from community
