[Spice-devel] Windows 10 guest: 2D/3D Accel

> OpenGL acceleration is currently local only (it has to go through a Unix

> distributions (for example Fedora 24).

> Host-side, you need qemu 2.6, libvirt 1.3.3 and spice 0.13.1, as well as a
> 4.4 Linux kernel and Mesa 11.1.

> Client-side, you need spice-gtk 0.31.

> Guest-side, you need Mesa 11.1 and a 4.4 Linux kernel.

> ¿Is there any known working configuration with fedora 25 in the client and
> Windows 10 as guest?

> Thanks in advance,

The problem is that there are currently no drivers for Windows. 
Probably you can run Windows but it will use VESA emulation or similar so would be accelerated like a standard VGA.
