Just did a regular ubuntu update on a laptop. Now in About>Details it says

Graphics: llvmpipe (LLVM 6.0, 256 bits)

It said "Intel Graphics (CofeeLake something...)" before the update. Also gnome-shell cpu usage went significantly up now. How to bring it back?

sudo lspci -v output (relevant lines):

Fixed, using steps 1 and 2 of the answer here: Ubuntu 18.04 not working with Intel Integrated Graphics

It explains how to force Xorg to use intel drivers. It is still a mystery why it stopped using them in the first place.
