Onboard GPU shuts off when VMs start?


Recommended Posts

I have an old beater monitor connected to my srver's onboard VGA port so I can monitor server reboots or see what is happening under the hood when things go haywire.  I have noticed that it seems to "sleep" once my VMs start up, and I won;t see any output on the monitor until the next reboot.  To be clear, this is to watch POST events, NOT passed through to a VM or anything.

 

I did briefly accidentally set it to pass through to a now-deceased VM. Not sure if that has any impact.

How can I get VGA output to stay put? Diags attached
