    For anyone like me:

    Mesa, also called Mesa3D and The Mesa 3D Graphics Library, is an open source implementation of OpenGL, Vulkan, and other graphics API specifications as well as OpenCL. Mesa translates these specifications to vendor-specific graphics hardware drivers.

      This stuff is like the backbone of how games work. Without it there is no pretty pixels on the screen. Really great work being done
