What's the difference between the 2? export QMLSCENE_DEVICE=softwarecontext and export QT_OPENGL=software It would be nice if the article would mention that. On the windows side, Qt Quick 2 applications have issues with the OpenGL dependency since Microsoft doesn't provide an implementation, it's up to graphics drivers. If you don't have a decent driver or version it will fail. Also Remote Desktop connections doesn't work. The dynamic opengl implementation in 5.5 solves that. Up until now the Remote Desktop issue kept my application from migrating.
