Hi Mat. we can have graphics acceleration in virtual machines. it just takes a little more work and also the type of hardware to use. example. PCI GPU passthrough in the excellent arch wiki there is good information https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/QEMU/Guest_graphics_acceleration https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PCI_passthrough_via_OVMF Thanks for the AppImage -- - | Walter Casanova | - - | Gnu / Linux - SysAdmin | - -- Cin mailing list Cin@lists.cinelerra-gg.org https://lists.cinelerra-gg.org/mailman/listinfo/cin
