Understood. Thanks for the info and reassurance.

The non-GPU hardware is an ARM flavor, and from what I just read about MESA_LLVMPipe, that targets Intel.  I see old some chat on some boards about whether it could target ARM successfully, and my down-cost hardware does have a NEON processor on it that might be available.  I guess I'll have to dig to find out if Mesa-LLVMpipe can work well on ARM w or w/o NEON.  Thanks for the tip and any additional knowledge you may have about whether Mesa-LLVMpipe for ARM has been seen to be a workable solution.
