For those interested, it seems like the changes in Version: 6.10.0-rc1 have fixed the issues with losing the KVM/local monitor on the ASRockRack E3C246D4U board (BIOS L2.21A) when the on board GPU is enabled for hardware encoding. Just was watching the bootup in the KVM on the upgrade reboot and my jaw dropped when I saw a login prompt rather than the screen go black at the end of the boot process!
where do you get the download from?

That was a really annoying issue for me, I bought this motherboard mainly for the fact of the kvm as it’s running headless. Although since moving from Ubuntu to unraid I’ve hardly needed to use it.

My board is currently reporting as hot
from ipmi
ipmi plugin
Also I'm using a Fractal design meshify 2 which has a smart hub where I connect all the fans to including the 4 pin cpu fan then it connects to cpu_fan1. Problem is it's reporting as 0rpm and the red light next to cpu_fan1 on the motherboard is flashing.
The fans which are plugged into the hub are spinning.

I can't seem to boot anymore. Bios picked up the usb ok if I select boot it can see the usb. I've tried copying the files from one usb to another then running the make boot batch file but still same issue. Error code on motherboard says A2 which means it can't find boot device.
It's odd it just gets to the screen where is says press f2 for bios f11 boot menu and stays there. If I manually select boot device nothing happens. If I put the usb in another machine it loads the boot menu fine. I've also tried a windows usb iso too and same thing it just won't boot from usb I've tried different usb sockets too.
edit- working now it’s because I had a monitor plugged in. Doesn’t seem to boot with it in as I have the onboard graphics force enabled for Plex transcoding. I then got a pci error with a graphics card plugged in so I had to disable the boot inventory. Now passed through a 3070 to a window vm fine.

will the nvidia 3000 and AMD 6000 series work ok with our motherboards (E3C246D4U)?
might buy one to crypto mine since the server is on 24/7
our boards don't fit full size gpus there's a heatsink in the way of the pcie 3 x 16 slot.
can use a rise cable and a vertical mount adapter if you have the right case.

I went ahead and removed the items from my "go" file after performing the "touch" command to enable the driver. All working fine. Anecdotally, hardware transcoding seems to be using more CPU than I remember, but I think I could easily just not be remembering correctly 😂
It should be using the gpu though?

Jus upgraded, all looking good so far.
Just reading this:
https://wiki.unraid.net/Unraid_OS_6.9.0#GPU_Driver_Integration
now I remember I had to follow this
to get h/w transcoding done on plex.
Not sure if I should undo this an enable the gpu driver in the first link?
-
anyone upgraded unraid to 6.9 yet? I'm taking the plunge now.....
-
ah ok I was wondering if it could be set on the motherboard h/w instead of software but I guess really same outcome.
do you still use one of those ports for the ipmi or do you use the dedicated nic for that because at the moment mine is via eth0
-
If I wanted to pair 2 nics is that possible? I have a switch where I can set an lacp trunk.

the E-2246G is worth a look at too.

Can't find the CPU or MOBO in the UK
Yeah the motherboard was really hard to get. I got mine from [email protected]

thanks for sharing.

ooh so now they've added this on the official firmware? At last!!
Where did you get this firmware from it doesn't show for me on their website.
Did this reset any of your existing settings?

I don't think the 2.30 BIOS supports the iGPU in the same way 2.21A does. I had the same experience as @realdiel. There was no hardware transcoding with the 2.30 BIOS. Installing the 2.21A BIOS resolved that.
Really odd. I don't know why they just don't put this on the public version and default it to disabled then give the users the choice to turn it on?

They provide this BIOS for large server hosting sites that need QSV transcoding to work on their hosted servers but, obviously, also need IPMI for managing all those servers. The special BIOS was not created just for us unRAID users but we obviously get to benefit from it. I doubt ASRock will drop support for this anytime soon. They have maintained it through at least one major BIOS/BMC update.
It used to be that way. On my backup server (an older Haswell generation MB and CPU), the iGPU/QSV support was in the regular BIOS. For some reason (William says to decrease the possibility of BIOS stability for those who do not need this feature), iGPU is not supported in public BIOS and they do not appear to be headed in that direction.
I don’t understand why they can’t just have this feature in the public bios but have it disabled by default?

That makes sense. I haven't looked into it, but wondering whether you could add a video card for the VM and still use onboard for video transcodes?
I've set the vm to use the ASPEED graphics.
Windows didn't h/w manager needed the driver so I used this one from here: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/29123/ASPEED-Onboard-Video-Driver-for-Windows-

No nothings change on my server.
Regardless of plex I don't understand why modeprobe is not picking up the gpu?
root@tower:~# sudo lshw -C video | grep product:
product: HD Graphics P630
product: ASPEED Graphics Family
root@tower:~# lspci | grep VGA
05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ASPEED Technology, Inc. ASPEED Graphics Family (rev 41)
Found the issue. I set my windows VM to use the graphics card and had it set to auto start.
Once this is started /dev/dri on unraid disappears.

Intel Socket 1151 Motherboards with IPMI AND Support for iGPU
in Motherboards and CPUs

I have a windows vm with a nvidia 3070 passed through to it, I want to add a 1660 super.
When I try to start the vm I get this error:
internal error: qemu unexpectedly closed the monitor: 2021-11-02T22:10:45.645683Z qemu-system-x86_64: -device vfio-pci,host=0000:03:00.0,id=hostdev0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x6: vfio 0000:03:00.0: group 17 is not viable Please ensure all devices within the iommu_group are bound to their vfio bus driver.
In tools system devices I can see this group groups 17
And here is all the info from system devices:
what can I do to get the 1660 working?
