What's stopping Intel, AMD and NVIDIA from offering native Vulkan support in WSL, then?
This 'NIH' (not so as already explained by another commenter) is offering graphics acceleration to WSL guests based on existing Windows drivers, which compensates for the fact that the GPU vendors aren't already offering acceleration - Vulkan or otherwise - for WSL guests.
I'm actually not sure how I would get stable acceleration, Vulkan or otherwise, in a Linux host in any VM. In my experience acceleration in VMWare and VirtualBox are both a crapshoot to the point of not being worth using.
- ColonelPhantom 4y agoHow about VirGL with QEMU/KVM? It's also not perfect but might work for you.
- kevingadd 4y agoWill give it a try the next time I need to test accelerated graphics on Linux, thanks a lot! Never heard of it before.
