Instead of the above how can I get the below output,<big> so that I can ensure graphics flow is using software rendering ? </big> <big> direct rendering: Yes OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer </big><big> </big>  <div dir="ltr"> <div>Thanking you in anticipation, Neeraj N.T </div> </div> </body> </html>
