Stadia on Intel NUC and Ubuntu 19.10 [The fix that 100% worked for me]

I just wanted to start off with I think Stadia is amazing, but much work needs to be done to make it a seamless experience on Linux. I take no credit for anything here. I'm simply passing along what worked for me. Sorry if this been covered before, I figured I'd post it regardless. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: I have the following NUC: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073SFFVK3?pf_rd_p=ab873d20-a0ca-439b-ac45-cd78f07a84d8&pf_rd_r=BE... Stadia has not worked well on this and had plenty of input lag, regardless of what I've tried. Some chrome flags had helped, but not completely eliminate it. So after a couple weeks of avoiding Stadia on my NUC, I found what I need at the following link: https://www.linuxuprising.com/2018/08/how-to-enable-hardware-accelerated.html You can follow the instructions all the way through step 3, the rest can be ignored. You can restart for good measure once everything is installed. This should work with all intel chipsets, but the NUC is all I got. The performance have been night and day. While the games via chrome aren't at the same resolution as playing on the chromecast ultra, I can at least play without all the input lag. Note: Here's the page to download the vaapi deb directly, it shows you more info on supported chipsets when installing it via gui: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-vaapi-driver
