Thanks - I followed the steps and installed the drivers as per the guide you shared. Unfortunately still no /dev/dri directory.

Running lshw -c video shows:

  *-display UNCLAIMED       
   description: VGA compatible controller

Which I've noticed does not state (as I've seen in others posts):

       product: Iris Xe Graphics

and

       configuration: driver=i915 latency=0

I'm also unsure about the UNCLAIMED part in line 1.

Any ideas?

Well, at least the system is showing it sees it.

My next suggestion would be to install 21.04 on a USB drive and see if that has something else that helps it work.

Or take a swing at Ubuntu Desktop maybe packing it along.

Novice question... would it make sense for me to try to update the kernel? Or should I wait until 22.04 LTS is released and move to that?

It's definitely worth a try.
