If you are talking about VirtualGL (https://virtualgl.org/), Spice doesn't
provide 3d rendering itself. However, you may use 3d/opengl in the
guest/remote, by various means. Either via cpu rendering, gpu passthrough,
or virgl. Thus, you can use VirtualGL together with Spice, but the 2
solutions will remain distinct. They offer different trade-offs. Spice is
designed to work at the display/monitor level, whatever the OS, while
VirtualGL is more an X11 application-level solution, afaik.
