Hi,
I'm facing a problem when passing a gpu to the VM.
When using VNC everything works finde (but not smoothly) so I wanted to pass my old RX560 to the VM.
As far as I unterstood the RX560 with baffin core should work. But when I add the GPU the VM no longer boots and the first
assigned core is sitting at 100% load untill I force stop the VM.
In the Logs I cannot see any usefull error messages.
I tried differnt combinations, with/-out vBIOS, with/-out sound, with/-out mutlifunction='on', .... allways the same.
Tried different versions of macOS but all showed the same behaviour.
Can someone please give me a hint (or the solution)?
CPU at 100% when VM is "running" with GPU:
