OpenGL ES or full OpenGL?  Almost all Arm chips limit themselves to ES
since that is all Android requires.  Yes it does make Arm kinda
pointless for 'real computing' purposes, but the target market is
phones, tablets and settop boxes.  A real pity.

Next problem is all video drivers on Arm (except, depending how you
split hairs, the Pi) are blobs.  If Fedora isn't officially admitting
the otherwise pretty darned good Nvidia drivers exist I wouldn't hold my
breath waiting for support for the craptastic stuff that passes for an
embedded video driver.
