Re: Support for accelerated graphics and video decoding on PINE A64+ in bullseye

The issue probably centers around the Mali GPU if it has one.   ARM stopped
providing x11 drivers, expect everyone to jump to Wayland.  Hope they get
sued.  I've spent most of a week trying to get Vulkan or OpenGL ES running
on an Odroid N2 and a Rock64.  Gross misrepresentation in my opinion.
