Research direction

Reproduce the issue with a Linux VM on the reported M3 Pro setup and inspect UTM's guest display and refresh-rate handling. Compare the refresh rates exposed to GNOME or KDE with the host display capabilities; done means supported rates above 75Hz are available where the host and guest can use them.
