That’s like (at least) third GPU-related project named Triton

Nice, I've been waiting for something like this for years. Meanwhile the gaming scene on linux has been getting better slowly thanks to Valve and friends... but being able to boot into a Windows VM with graphics acceleration was previously a pain on Linux machines that only have a single discrete GPU - I'd wonder whether a solution like this would work with VirtualBox, or only on QEMU.

Pretty cool to finally have a decent open 3d solution for windows vms. Now if only someone made an opengl driver for older intel macosx vms...

Does this mean DX1-10 are also supported? I've been struggling to play some DX3-7 games because of VirtualBox and VMware limitations and Win10+ backward compatibility gaps.
Article is quite long and technical, so it wasn't clear to me. That said, still great to hear Windows guests are getting some attention, especially from a long lived project that's proven it's not going anywhere.

why always only DX11, why not DX12?
Parallels and VMWARE can also do only DX11??

I use this with Baguette/Crostini on ChromeOS to get some light gaming done. Works very well [3].

[3]: For Baguette, the Crostini-replacement, one needs to do a minor amount of tweaking to get 3D acceleration to work well (https://www.reddit.com/r/Crostini/comments/1sftdu1/comment/o...).

Nothing to lose and a lot to gain.
