Hi Robert, I was referring to giving a KVM guest access to the GPU.
What I'm trying to determine is if I ran KVM guests (Windows, Linux) if they would 'see' the virtual GPU providing 3D functionality. I'm not expecting the virtual GPU to be able to play 3D games or run Photoshop but wanted a snappy desktop experience.
