Graphics, sound and multimedia • PyQt ELFS backend using software rendering on a Pi5

$

So I have a Pi5 with an official RPi 7" display attached, running a slightly modified Pi OS 64 bit Bookworm Lite (nothing taken away - a few extra packages installed). When I try to run my PyQt program, which uses the EGLFS backend to write to the Pi screen directly, I get the following error:

Feb 10 15:46:02 aura python[3874569]: Running on a software rasterizer (LLVMpipe), expect limited performance.

Now as I understand it, that means that it's not been able to access the hardware accelerated graphics driver, and has fallen back to software. Unfortunately what I don't understand is why, or how to fix it. Can anyone help?
