I’m having trouble allocating more VRAM to my QEMU virtual machine. Currently, I’m using the following command to launch my VM:

qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -boot menu=on -drive file=QEMU -m 2G -cpu host -vga virtio

Can anyone help me figure out how to increase the VRAM allocation in QEMU?

    It’s an improvement, but 500MB+ would be perfect.

      Replace the value 128 to 512. And try again :)

        I was under the impression that QXL driver were capped at 256MB too, thanks.
