In fact I have discovered the existence of these software just a few days ago
thanks to comments from other people on the QEMU forum. But I've not yet
tried any of them.
Apparently, when reading the home page of wmgl, "VMGL is available for
X11-based guest OS's: Linux, FreeBSD and OpenSolaris"
As far as chromium is concerned, someone has posted "I've tried chromium with
windows guest in qemu a few months ago. The network throughput is the
limiting factor - one needs to write a custom transport driver." Don't know
how limiting it is.
