OpenGL under linux
From Organic Design wiki
The question is: What are the OS requirements to provide hardware OpenGL in a linux OS?
Research beginnings
- It lookls like MESA is a software renderer and does not use hardware GL. [ref http://osdl.sourceforge.net/OSDL/OSDL-0.3/src/doc/web/main/documentation/rendering/SDL-openGL.html#availability]

- GLEW detects what GL extentions are available
