How to update OpenGL on QEMU/RedHat QXL












0















I'm using Windows 7 guest on Fedora 29 host, and QEMU/KVM. My hardware does not support VT-d, however it supports VT-x, and I found that Windows guest works best with QXL video driver.



When I'm trying to start one of Steam games (quite a simple one, a board game adaptation), it says




OpenGL 1.5 or higher is required (your version is 1.1.0). Please upgrade the driver of your video card.




To my understanding this is the latest video driver for Red Hat QXL GPU.



Does it mean if there's no newer QXL driver, I can't use newer OpenGL?



Do I have other options besides QXL?
