WSL supports a kernel-based DirectX to Mesa bridge. It is better than any other VM implementation. However the latest releases caused some problems with auto detection mechanism in Mesa. Sometimes the Linux kernel module also fails to load.

You need to ensure that DirectX driver is used with tools like eglinfo. Most of the time, the main culprit is LLVMpipe software driver being used due to wrong detection.



You can't run a proper VM there though, something like a normal distro with systemd, KDE Wayland session and etc. At least from what I've figured out so far. Basically I need a normal full featured VM, not some gimped variant and with graphics acceleration preferably.
