Today I looked at the number of downloads for the various versions of Stellarium under the "Download project files" and it appears that "most" of us are interested in the Angle/32bit version with close to 4x as many downloads as the other test versions. This would indicate most people are using older hardware as the other versions do not work with older video cards as you stated. Before I will spend 30.00 on a new video card I will likely just pay 30.00 for SkySafari. By developing the new version of Stellarium that only works with new hardware, fewer people will be using Stellarium, how does that make sense?

I would also add that the Angle 32bit 13.1.95 works well in all other aspects on this old/2006 system, the only buggg I see is with the Satellite button, that is why I report it as a bugggg. The other test versions do not work at all on this system with numerous problems in each version so I have given up trying to make any of those work correctly.

Respectfully
