Maybe they don't have OpenGL drivers for the VideoCore... or simply it can't run OpenGL but only a subset like ES... http://elinux.org/RPi_Hardware

Anyway a 700MHz ARM is more than enough for kicad (excluding opengl:P), I did use it on a Via C3 (more or less a PII class CPU) clocked at 800MHz until about a month ago. Perfectly usable, suffers a little on 4 layer boards:P
