It doesn’t look like the this is the best solution for the graphic card.

Graphics:
Device-1: Intel Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics
vendor: Hewlett-Packard driver: N/A bus-ID: 00:02.0 chip-ID: 8086:2592
class-ID: 0300
Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.11 driver: loaded: intel,vesa
unloaded: fbdev,modesetting resolution: 1280×768 s-dpi: 104
OpenGL: renderer: llvmpipe (LLVM 11.0.1 128 bits) v: 4.5 Mesa 20.3.5
compat-v: 3.1 direct render: Yes

There are two drivers loaded vesa and intel and the 3D rendering is software rendering (llvmpipe)
If you really feel comfortable with the way the graphic works now, you could leave it like that.
On the other hand there have been users with your graphic card here on the forum, where the inxi only reported to use the intel driver and the 3D rendering was hardware rendering with MesaDri.

Probably there was created a /etc/X11/xorg.conf while using the safe mode, which forces now the vesa driver.
If you are still in the mood for making changes you can post it here.

I will look into addressing the video.

One other thing I want to find out about is this laptop doesn’t shut down completely.
The last thing posted on the screen that stays on there is this:

[620.123303] reboot: System halted

Then I have to use the power button to shut it off.

To show the bootoptions you are using right now
cat /proc/cmdline

You can try one bootoption . On the bootmenu press the letter “e”
On the screen you see now go with the up/down arrow keys to the line that starts with linux
at the end of the line do one space character and then type acpi=noirq

Then press F10 (IIRC, it’s written there) to start the system with this bootoption.
Please look with the above command if the bootoption is used.
If this works for you we can make it permanent.
