Toot

Can someone advise me on how to get native resolution #3k in a #kvm #QEMU guest (#Linux)?

Full screen mode and resizing quickly reverts to some 1080x1200 resolution.

Honestly I am a bit overwhelmed with tipps online talking about adjusting spice values, as I cannot see them in the xml file

[#]Fedora #FedoraSilverblue is the host system. My laptop has 3k display

Many thanks

@phocque Switch to virtio graphics. You may also have to enable OpenGL acceleration. If you're using virt-manager there should be buttons in the UI for this, if you're using QEMU directly at the command line you can use something like -vga virtio -display sdl,gl=on.

@arraybolt3 Thanks, this fixed the resolution for me. I had to disable GL and 3D acceleration as then the virtual machine wouldn't start. This gives quite a few graphics errors when moving windows.

VM is very sluggish unfortunately, will have to dig further
