just to clarify potential misunderstandings: this is for opengl compatibility using CPU rendering. although obviously having this sort of thing will be useful for transitioning to gpu support independently of having drivers written

LibGPU seems to load the soft GPU, doesn't seem to do all that much. Which is perfectly understandable, GPUs are their own special part of operating system programming (messing with firmware, boot timings, etc.).

If it'll ever get GPU support, I'd expect it to be based on QEMU/libvirt GPU acceleration rather than any direct hardware support.

Unless someone knowledgeable and motivated enough has a crack at it and writes a driver forttheir GPU, of course That's an immense task, though, so I wouldn't expect it any time soon. Maybe an Intel engineer will get bored or something.
