Getting 3D-stuff to work can sometimes be a hassle.
Statements like: 'you need to install closed-source drivers" or "no
you almost never need to install closed source drivers" are both
wrong. On some systems the graphics card 3D stuff is supported
in the open source driver, on some systems it isn't, and you need
the closed source driver.
It should in theory be possible to run mesa-gl to provide software
support for 3D stuff. However it generally is very slow.
I still think that throwing away the previous way of doing previews
(without GL) was a mistake. Sometimes you don't have GL, and
this can be considered "essential" for running a 3D shooter game,
but not for an essentially 2D program like hugin.
