KVM Plugin - how to add additional modules (SDL, virgl, OpenGL)?

How to properly add additional modules to KVM plugin or any other workaround?

You can use virsh commands or connect through virt-manager:

Quote from KVM Plugin For OMV6 - omv-extras wiki

The plugin uses LIBVIRT internally, so virsh commands will work if needed. It is possible to connect to KVM from another machine on the network running virt-manager, providing yet another means of making modifications to a VM.

The procedure to connect with virt-manager is here. https://wiki.omv-extras.org/do…_with_virt-manager_to_kvm

There is also a virt-manager docker container example in the openmediavault-compose plugin.

I'm able to use virt-manager with WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). But the question is not about virt-manager.

QEMU can have additional functionality by enabling modules while building - for example - VirGL .

It can't be enabled with virt-manager.

I just want to add them.

If virt-manager cannot do it (from what I have seen briefly in some Google link it seems that it can...) you will have to do it using commands. https://www.qemu.org/docs/mast…#virtio-gpu-virglrenderer

So far it has not been on ryecoaaron's roadmap for the openmediavault-kvm plugin to cover GPU virtualization. Unless this changes in the future, the two paths you have to achieve that type of virtualization are the two that I gave you.

There is still a third way, you can configure a vm and before launching it you can edit the xml file directly and modify it as you like.

recompiling is not the debian way. Did you try installing the virgl-server package? The qemu-system-modules-opengl package isn't available until Debian 12/OMV 7.x. I don't know of anything for sdl that is specifically for kvm/qemu.
