It has to be underlined that beowulf's mesa packages are two years old! As such, your somewhat recent graphic card will not have any recent fixes, or might not enable access to all the features of your hardware. If you want OpenGL 4.6, you're out of luck. Switching to devuan testing, chimaera, will solve most issue without resorting to the usage of ppa and other foolishness. Cheers, Ludovic
