I configured and built qemu 6.2.0 with --enable-sdl --enable-opengl --enable-virglrenderer parameters as qemu-system-aarch64 target for an amd64 ubuntu host. When I try to enable -device virtio-vga-gl is tells me that it is not a valid device model name.

Did I miss something?

Regards.

I think the virtio-vga device is not compiled in by default for aarch64, because the intention is that it's only for machine types where there is legacy firmware that does not know about virtio-gpu but only about VGA (such as the x86 PC machine types). The recommended graphics type for the aarch64 'virt' board (according to the documentation) is virtio-gpu-pci. Your guest OS will obviously need support for that device type.
