The OpenGL driver mostly works, but it has some... issues. There is a reason why the RPi Foundation doesn't enable it by default.
I have used the OpenGL driver before, and it breaks some weird things (e.g. Programs which use the proprietary blob such as Chromium or VLC slow to a crawl, boot splash screens don't work, a few other weird things.)
I still, however, don't get why the RPi Foundation doesn't have the ability to enable the driver in the GUI tool. You have to manually use `raspi-config` in the terminal, which the GUI has replaced in almost everything but this.
