Hey guys! I was hoping someone could help me through this last little bit of this project I was working on. I've been trying to dedicate a pair of GTX 960's to a Windows virtual machine for the occasional gaming. I've moved to Ubuntu full time, and I very much enjoy linux. I don't want to maintain an entire windows installation and dual boot just to play a particular game every once and awhile.
I've been going at it script-kiddie style and following the well-known puget guide. Here's the exact steps I took to set this up:
-> /etc/modules
-> /etc/default/grub
->
->
-> /etc/initramfs-tools/modules
->
-> reboot
-> dmesg | grep pci-stub
-> /etc/vfio-pci1.cfg
-> /etc/vfio-pci2.cfg
- >
-> /usr/vm1
->
The status is that adding/removing "-vga none" from bios line either I can get the VM to run on my linux desktop enough to install Windows (but no GPUs are detected in Windows), or the qemu screen comes up as if it is working, but there is no output from my graphics cards at all. I can't find anything that can tell me if it's at least trying to work or not and just throwing and error.
This has to be the last step before gettting a working VM with GPU passthrough and it's been frustrating.
Does anybody have advice on how to finish this?
