Is there an overview of OpenGL, GLUT, etc. as used in OpenBSD?
apropos OpenGL has a little info, but not much.

Thanks,

I have installed the glut package and am now building and running the OpenGL program
examples in the SuperBible. Would these programs run faster with open source drivers
for ATI video cards?

Thanks.

afaik, opensource ATI video card drivers are much limited in
hardware 3D supports. only some very old display cards are fully
3D accelerated, such as those with R200 cores...

it seems that ATI cards above Radeon 9xxx are only 2D
accelerated...

I've built and run most of the example programs in the SuperBible. I now need GLSL to
run programs. Is GLSL available for OpenBSD?

Are PBO extensions available for OpenBSD?

Also, it would be nice to support OpenGL 1.4.

/home/daf}glxinfo | grep -i version
server glx version string: 1.2
client glx version string: 1.4
OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.4.1)
glu version: 1.3

the current version of Xorg under OpenBSD is still 6.9.0 ?
Xorg 6.9.0 still uses Mesa 6.x. while Xorg 7.3 now uses Mesa 7.x
