I'm going to assume what you actually want is a 3D capable OpenGL provider in your VM. If you have an Intel GPU, you can use VT-g to share it with virtual machines. On Linux this is fairly recent development and I personally have not had time to experiment with it. This functionality has, surprisingly, been available on Windows for some time. Also available on Windows is the ability to pool GPUs and allow virtual machines computation time on them. However, that doesn't work on Linux (yet), so the only alternative to VT-g is VGA passthrough which requires another GPU. > Or do I really need 2GPUs and 2 Keyboard/Mouse? > You don't need two keyboards and mice. However, in the typical setup, when you pass your keyboard and mouse to the virtual machine, you will be unable to interact with your host machine. For a lot of users this might be fine. If QEMU crashes the devices should be released to the host, but if the machine becomes unresponsive you will have to wait or perform a hard reset. Another option is to view your machine (Linux or Windows) with remote desktop software. I personally prefer this one because it doesn't require you to have a duplicate set of hardware. With Windows, RDP provides better host/guest integration than anything else. Taiidan recommended a separate USB controller for the guest. This can be very helpful but also isn't necessary. You can pass specific USB ports to a guest. (I have to test this with hotplugging but it looks like it should work.) Cheers, R0b0t1
