Anyways, to kill time while waiting for dinner I had a look at what other hardware I had in that machine besides the Pentium E5800 and a soundblaster "SB Live!".
now, I don't meant to brag, but this power house also has a "Mesa Intel(R) G41 (ELK) (0x2e32)" UMA GPU with a whopping 1536MB of vram to work with and my choice of OpenGL 2.1 or OpenGL ES2 🥵
