What Linux distros are supported by mac OS virutalization framework

I have developed an app to create and run virual machines using mac os virtualization framework for apple siicon and intel macs. I have tried ubuntu, fedora, debian & linux mint distros and they all worked fine with intel macs. But when i try to run other distros like mx linux, manjaro, pop os, endevour os etc on intel mac they all on booting iso just shows the black screen. is there any list of officilay support linux distros for intel macs and apple silicon. the support of linux distros are fairly limited or am i missing something.

There is no official list of supported Linux distributions.

Booting to a black screen is often a sign that the Linux kernel wasn't built with Virtio GPU support.

For command line distributions, the requirements would be supporting the Virtio Console device, as well as having a kernel configured to use it for serial output.

Yes you may be right kernel may not support virtio gpu. i tested the commnad line distros with virtio console device they work fine though via serial output.
