    Im assuming you're on a single gpu setup and, as such are trying to do single gpu passthrough with a single nvidia card. so you'll likely have to run some libvirt hooks or smth to run scripts to unbind your gpu once you start your vm. In which case id suggest going through these two guides 1 2 which go over completely passing through your single gpu when you start your vm

    I used this tutorial before for Arch linux and it works https://github.com/joeknock90/Single-GPU-Passthrough. However I am using Fedora now and I'm trying to make sense of what I need to change or if I should follow a different tutorial.

    I used the script/tutorial form here The startup to VM works but the teardown doesn't. I experimented with other peoples teardown scripts like this one - edited to my system and as i said above, it does come back to the desktop but with an issue.

  • My virtual machine with a single gpu passthrough only works for a few minutes, then works only with new machine
    2 projects | /r/VFIO | 20 Nov 2022
    Hello, I tried to make virtual machine with a single GPU passthrough for general gaming purposes. I followed this guide and this one and this is what my setup looks like: using Arch Linux as my OS, grub parameters look like this: `GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="loglevel=3 amd_iommu=on iommu=pt video=efifb:off iommu=1"`, enabled iommu in bios (iommu groups look like that), installed those packages - `virt-manager qemu vde2 ebtables iptables-nft nftables dnsmasq bridge-utils ovmf kvm`, changed user and group in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf to my username and my username's group (also added to kvm and libvirt group to my username), set up win 10 virtual instance with virt-manager, changed bios to UEFI (/usr/share/edk2-ovmf/x64/OVMF_CODE.fd), set topology to 1 socket 6 cores 2 threads, passed my usb mouse,keyboard and microphone to it, passed GPU and audio controller as PCI (tried using rom file for both of those, with or without - the same problem occurs), first I was trying to use risingprismtv's script for starting up and reverting vm and this The Libvirt Hook Helper with my own scripts for the start and revert states.

    Last year my pc has 2 graphic cards (a small geforce and and rtx 2070) i was using qemu and can switch between linux and windows easyli. Since 4 month i use now one graphic card and can't switch like before (when windows is in use, I need to shutdown to get back to linux). But it's really work. You can use passthrough with one graphic card. Tuto : https://github.com/joeknock90/Single-GPU-Passthrough
