Your may want to check this (although it’s still a bit far from being ready for prime time). Help gladly accepted to get there faster, BTW

Progress reports: streaming OpenGL/Vulkan calls to sys-gui-gpu

Getting accelerated 3D on Qubes is probably one of the biggest pain points. Even if everyone could forward a second GPU to a single domain using PCI passthrough (without even talking about the difficulties involved), we would not be able to do that to 2 domains simultaneously, and would have to face security implications even when dealing with 2 VMs non-simultaneously. But there is another approach that (hopefully) would allow to overcome all of this: streaming the OpenGL calls from individual…
