  1. PSA for anyone using #QEMU #KVM for #SingleGPUPassthrough
    Guides are all over the net suggesting hooks scripts invoking pci devices, unloading/loading kernel modules, and other unnecessary things. Here's my current hook script for starting the VM:

    systemctl stop display-manager

    That's it. And the reverse for teardown:

    systemctl start display-manager

    #IOMMU groups still apply, and you need to pass the correct PCI devices to your VM, but everything else is handled automatically.

    Disclaimer that this is how it works currently for my AMD card. I did have a working setup with my NVIDIA card that did unload/load kernel modules, however it seems things have come a long way since I set that up.

  3. Through #WINE and absolute fuckery, I was able to get #SkyrimSE running with #MO2 and run my existing load order. No more messing with #VFIO and #KVM . Only thing that won't work is #ENB — for that I'm testing #CommunityShaders which so far looks good. Not quite as pretty, but far more performant.

    lmao, Chris Titus Tech had an update to Looking Glass and now he can't access his Windows VM.

    This is why vGPUs are important!

  7. If anyone wants to passthrough their integrated GPU on an AMD Ryzen 7000 series, peep this. But I will say, it's actually not worth it. The reset bug is here despite the fact AMD has fixed it in Big Navi, and vendor-reset ain't gonna help. Just use an NVIDIA GPU instead, it'll be easier. Or just use VirtualBox if it's simple enough.

  12. Hi, I'm Sparrow. I run KstrlWorks where we build high-performance, privacy-first tools for Linux users.

    Built systems for F-35s and high-frequency trading desks. Now an executive that companies with deep pockets parachute into their disasters to fix operations and actually grow them.

    Currently shipping:
    HardPass - GPU passthrough and #VFIO that actually works. For #LinuxGaming and power users.

    I write about:
    - Real #EngineeringLeadership. The kind that prevents incidents, not LinkedIn motivational posters.
    - Running efficient, security-first teams that don't implode
    - #Virtualization, systems architecture, and #Bootstrapping
    - Building infrastructure so solid you never need to hire a fixer like me

    High-performance, privacy-first tools built with the same standards I use for critical systems. Linux users deserve that.

    Let's build things that work. 🐧

  17. RTX 5090 + llama.cpp bị treo sau 2-3 lần chạy mô hình (cấu hình VFIO, Ubuntu 24.04). Lỗi "illegal memory access", GPU lỗi, quạt quay 100%. Đã thử nhiều cách nhưng chưa khắc phục.

  18. So my HP Prolaint ML350 Gen 9 has a intigrated matrox gpu in the motherboard but apparently still would rather piggyback of whatever gpu is installed by shadowing its vbios so now i have isssues with my intel arc a310. Good job HP

  24. yesterday, i booted into the VFIO specialization for the first time since i reinstalled NixOS. i opened OBS and, as i kinda expected, it didn't work; i couldn't record the screen or capture windows. today, i booted into normal NixOS, where the GPU isn't restricted to virtual machines. and uh. yeah. OBS stopped working again

    so i have a theory:

    somehow, the NixOS specialization for VFIO is interfering in some way with files or configs or bindings or whatever, that are persistent, even after i turn off my laptop and boot into normal NixOS. this is the only logical explanation i can come up with. i'm using the exact same config i was using before reinstalling, when it was broken, and it was working, and then it
    stopped working

    TLDR there's something that persists after the first boot into VFIO mode, that's preventing things from working normally in some way

  28. Мой идеальный компьютер

    Я сижу под Linux, но иногда нужна винда. До недавнего времени у меня был обычный dual boot, но сейчас я реализовал свой идеальный сетап: - основная система - Linux - Windows - на выделенной SSD - на нее можно загрузиться как из груба, так и из виртуалки - с пробросом второго GPU (дисплей на отдельный физический выход) - с качественным удаленным подключением (как RDP, но быстрое) - можно играть в игры Ниже опишу что и как сделал.

  37. yk what i'll just tell you what's wrong

    even when i select the "no passthrough please" option, when the systemd output is on screen it ocasionally says something along the lines of "the gpu is already bound to vfio" which leads me to believe that the boot option is not working bc it's not letting the host use what i'm passing through to it. oddly enough i can't use virt-manager when i'm not in passthrough mode
