Nouveau X.Org Driver Adds Maxwell & GLAMOR Acceleration Support

There is difference between Wayland compositor and Wayland application.

Wayland the protocol requires EGL. Any hardware that supports EGL will support OpenGL, or at least OpenGL ES, in some form - whatever form, it will be more than enough to render applications. It is perfectly safe to assume when writing against Wayland that you have working 3d support, albeit you can only really assume GLES because Wayland is already running on phones like the Jolla.

No... https://tecnocode.co.uk/2013/02/18/w...uffer-backend/ the hardware does not have to support EGL or opengl or anything AFAIK.
