Camera Module 3 NoIR Wide

Support
1

Hi,

I’m trying to run the new Camera Module 3 NoIR Wide on a Raspberry Pi Model 3 V 1.2 running Bullseye 11 (installed with the Raspberry Pi Imager). I’ve connected the camera and done updates (sudo get update then sudo get upgrade and reboot) and I cannot get the camera to work. Libcamera-hello produces the following:

libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to authenticate

Any help appreciated

A model 3 (orearlier) with Bullseye needs some special configuration in order to execute libcamera apps. See:
libcamera apps on Bullseye running on Pi 0 - 3 - Raspberry Pi Forums
