ps: sorry if I misled some, but I'm not a developer. But if I am able to help in any way, I am willing to help

Oh, I see. Well, we're going to have to compile both Irrlicht and Minetest from source because the Irrlicht in the Debian repos (and thus the Minetest compiled against it in the repos) doesn't have the OpenGL ES renderer enabled (it's in a separate branch of the Irrlicht source tree). Without the OpenGL ES renderer, it has to fall back to the software renderer (which simply isn't practical on our embedded hardware, and that's probably what you were seeing when you ran it in the Debian LXDE).
