Not sure, but maybe the QXL driver will help:
qemu-system-x86_64 [...] -vga qxl -global qxl-vga.vram_size_mb=128 -global qxl-vga.ram_size_mb=128
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.
Vga is fixed iirc, the original frame buffer was tiny, the emulated one gives you 16mv
Cirrus logic gives you 16mb too iirc, then you can use other drivers that give you more,

If I'm reading correctly, there isn't a modern GPU driver for QEMU that supports customizing VRAM?
Qxl does, it's fairly modern.
Otherwise you have virtio and virglrenderer, which are as modern as it gets this side of pcie pass through or intel's sriov.
Thanks the list is very useful.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
