Computer has <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/AMD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AMD</span></a> Radeon RX 7900 GRE graphics card. Host is running sway. Nixos is 25.05.</p><p>Have tried both using virtio and qxl graphics drivers, virt-viewer and remote-viewer, with and without spice-vdgentd/spice-vdagent, but get glitchy displays, random mini-freezes, random mouse pointer movement, mouse point in wrong place (yes am using tablet driver).</p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/spice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>spice</span></a> spice-vdgentd/spice-vdagent doesn't seem to load automatically under sway. Haven't looked why yet. Can start it manually. Some references say spice will help particularly with qxl. But I get the impression it is legacy(?), and mostly helps with sharing clipboard and screen size, not with stability and reliability of graphics display.</p><p>Switched back to X Windows and i3, and everything works flawlesslesly. So maybe I should just give up on sway for now inside the VM?</p>
