ccowin Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Hello, So I recently got a new GPU and was able to slot it in to my 6.11 build pretty seamlessly. It worked great in my existing VM and all was good. Well then 6.12 released and I messed something up when transferring the vdisk off my cache to convert it to ZFS. Well thats annoying but all my data is still there otherwise so just needed a new OS set up. However now I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the passthrough working again. All my BIOS settings are fine CSM and IOMMU are enabled Adding multifunction='on' and changing the sound card to match the bus of the video card Tried also adding this other bit to the xml for GPUs with high memory amounts: Tried OVM/SeaBIOS Tried UEFI/Legacy Tried no vBios, dumped vBios and one from techpowerup with the header removed (wasnt 100% sure I have the TUF 4090 and Techpowerup only had one for the strix but I assumed they were close enough). Have a HDMI and DP monitor attatched to GPU Syslinux: kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot vfio_iommu_type1.allow_unsafe_interrupts=1 pcie_acs_override=downstream,multifunction video=efifb:off Everything seems to launch fine, and I can access the VM from RDP, but the GPU is not recognized by the VM and nothing shows up on any of the monitors. Thanks for any help you can provide. e: As I was writing this I think the SeaBIOS version actually worked but now it wont boot at all.. I'll play around with it more and report back. I unfortunately didnt attatch any USB devices because I just wanted to make sure it works. tower-diagnostics-20230620-2152.zip Quote Link to comment
ccowin Posted June 26, 2023 Author Share Posted June 26, 2023 (edited) I got it running on the old 2080ti but I cant get it working on the new 4090. Always a black screen. Edited June 26, 2023 by ccowin Quote Link to comment

Was that using seabios or OVMF. I have an issue passing through GT1030 seabios to v6.11.5. OVMF seems to work. Everything works on 6.9.2 I was hoping 6.12 might fix it but haven't tried yet.

ccowin Posted July 5, 2023 Author Share Posted July 5, 2023 I’ve tried both with no success either way Quote Link to comment
SaltyEddy Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 I am running 6.12.1 for some days and had trouble getting my Palit GTX 1060 3GB to passthrough. Eventually today I tried the it WITHOUT a vBIOS. Not modified, not unmodified. It just works! With vBIOS (modified or not) it wouldn't start the VM. It would hang with 100% on one Hyperthread. I think they added nvidia support? For some cards at least? I don't know. But i am Happy that it works! I was just one or two steps away from going back to 9.6.2 Quote Link to comment
