I have made this work before (which, as you'll see later in this email,
doesn't imply that's how it's supposed to work!):

Oh, and I did try both with and without "--fullscreen".

Now's probably a good time to point out I only have a vague idea of what I'm
doing ;-)
I didn't try vc4 because the raspi recipes implied (to me) it was for aarch64
only. The "vc4graphics" MACHINE_FEATURES is only added for raspberrypi3-64.
I'll give this a try though.
Here's another question that only shows my inexperience in this area... does
using mesa always imply software-only rendering? mali (for example) would be
hardware rendering (though through a binary blob) and mesa is the software
fallback?
By the way, with my current setup I have been able to run openGL apps (e.g.
glmark2 by itself) albeit most definitely non-accelerated!
A lot of google searches talk about setting environment variables. Are there
any that might apply?
Best regards,
Trevor
