I am ruining qemu 10.0.0-rc1 (but 9.2.2 also does not work), kernel 6.14.0.

I am runing mint on my host and arch on my guest. on my host I have virglrenderer on and on my guest I installed the pacman package lib32-vulkan-virtio and vulkan-virtio.

If it helps I can remove the pass throws and insted use:

-usbdevice tablet -usbdevice mouse -usbdevice keyboard
or
-device virtio-mouse -device virtio-keyboard -device virtio-tablet"""
