After https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/d967cc35fd0c77d9f3dd0b3d0c7df850db6ec274, the OpenGL option is hidden from the options dialog for gtk3. But as reported at https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/179220, apparently the previously-set option might still have some effects, at least disabling access to the HW acceleration selector, thus preventing user to configure options. Caolán, could you please take a look?
it looks like for this case, possibly a fix could be conditionally return false in CanvasSettings::IsHardwareAccelerationRO() for gtk3 case, but is that a universal fix for all cases where the OpenGL setting is used?

backport to 6-2 in gerrit
Verified with current master (checked setting both UseOpenGL and ForceOpenGL under org.openoffice.Office.Common/VCL to true) - thanks!
(In reply to Caolán McNamara from comment #3) > backport to 6-2 in gerrit Caolán, should it be backported to 6-1 as well ?
