Update to OpenGL 2.1

And I hear Panfrost isn't that great. I'm just exploring the same issues on an Odroid N2 and a Rock64. You might look into meson (not meson the build system). The Mali people pulled a fast one on the rest of the world, it's rare to get one to work right, except in Android. Wayland may come out better than X11 since they've stopped writing drivers for X11, everything has to be reverse engineered. https://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?f...5&start=50
Waiting for word on my Pinebook Pro, due in December. The Mali T860 in it has been approved (Conformant) for Vulkan https://vulkan.lunarg.com/ and https://www.khronos.org/vulkan/ drivers linked from https://developer.arm.com/solutions/grap...pis/vulkan Vulkan is billed as a replacement for OpenGL ES, or an underlying lower-level language which maybe an OpenGL frontend could run on. OpenGL is decades old and not very interesting so the Khronos people are working on replacing it.
