Etnaviv Gallium3D Reaches OpenGL 2.1

Apparently, there's a lot going on with etnaviv recently. They also just started with GC7000 in mesa.

Makes sense, since Librem 5 will need it.

I don't think devs will want to track OpenGL drivers below version 3.0.

Why? A lot of applications (like for example GNOME or KDE graphical interfaces) need OpenGL 2.1 to work.

I don't think devs will want to track OpenGL drivers below version 3.0.
But as soon as etnaviv reaches 3.0, it could be added. But I wonder, are the etnaviv GPU capable of handling OpenGL 3.0 and higher?
I don't know them very well, but it seems like small GPUs.

It tracks the progress of 3.0 up so this is actually the perfect time, else the 3.0 breakdown is pointless.
