    Oh, sure, my interest is to implement this kind of
vm in linux and windows 10, but I'm looking for alternative
ways rather than using looking glass, as it seems it
enforces to use shared memory.

     I see that using egl-headless I could get some sort
of capabilities, but not all of the gpu, and using spice only
I don't find a way to redirect the vga output to the remote
display.

    Best regards.

    José.
