    Good to see a fairly complete open source alternative to Nsight. But it seems to be missing OpenGL 1.0 - 2.0 support, which severely limits it for debugging older software, which ironically, are often more buggy due to the lax GL1/2 specification, FFP/immediate mode shenanigans, performance issues, driver bugs and (then) lack of conformance tests.

      Never mind, I misread. They only support OpenGL ES 2.x so you are correct.
