similar to: VGA passthrough radeon 4850 as primary card

Greetings, I''m attempting to do gfx_passthru with the primary graphics adapter (03:00.0), passing it to a guest. I can unbind it from the host but when I fire up the guest OS my monitor loses signal from the graphics card and that''s that. The GFX card is dual DVI, I''ve tried both slots. Host is Linux 2.6.32.14-1.2.105.xendom0.fc12.x86_64, Guest is Windows 7. PC is an

Hi all I can''t seem to find any information on vga-passthrough when booting through xen.efi, so I assume it should work. But I encounter a problem on a windows 7 HVM that boots fine when dom0 is booted through MBR but fails when dom0 is booted through UEFI. My system is: DQ77KB motherboard with bios version 44 Core i7-3779T with VT-d Intel HD graphics 4000 In the qemu log it

Hi All, When tried to pass through 2 mpt2sas HBA to hvm guest, hvmloader paused with below: MPT BIOS Fault 09h encountered at adapter PCI(00h,04h,00h) Press any key to continue... Checked related codes and mostly like it caused by rombios did not loaded MPT BIOS properly, and lead MPT BIOS failed to bootup. config-file of the guest as below: ---------------------------------- # cat vm.cfg

Hello I am new in XEN and Linux. I am trying the VGA passthru. I can xen-pciback.hide EtherNet, Serial Com port. But when I xen-pciback.hide my VGA. I can no longer login to the Linux(Fedora 12). Then how can I xm create a XP DomU guest? Can anyone help? I am using Intel Q35 MB with Intel Core2 CPU. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list

Hi xen developers, Does any of you know how to disable the cirrus-vga emulation for hvm in xen? I have been trying to disable that from the source codes, but even with that, I still see a VGA controller when I boot up my guest domain. In particular, I would like to do this because I am passing through a graphics card to my guest domain using direct pass through. Thanks, - billy

With the kernel option ''xen-pciback.hide=(00:14.2) xen-pciback.permissive'', Xen-4.2.0-rc3 is unable to pass through my onboard Intel HDA audio adapter to a Windows7 guest. I tried doing the same in KVM and it worked immediately without issue. On the guest, I get a "High Definition Audio Controller" with the correct vendor/device ID, and an error of "This device

Userspace patches for the pci-passthrough functionality. The major updates since the last post are: - Loop to add passthrough devices in pc_init1 - Handle errors in read/write calls - Allow invocation without irq number for in-kernel irqchip Other than this, several small things were fixed according to review comments received last time.

I''m using Xen 4.3, installed from source on Ubuntu 13.04. I''ve successfully installed a Windows 8 guest, and had Xen pass it an AMD FirePro W7000 GPU (technically 2 PCI devices - the second is for the sound), as well as the virtualised graphics adapter. Windows finds the card fine, and I''ve installed AMD''s drivers. Device Manager says that the card cannot

Gordan & David, Read about your latest work, and was thrilled to learn that both soft and hard mods are working. I bought the GTX 670 model in David''s article, I will be giving this a shot in a week. I was hoping to ask a few questions. 1. Is there a specific qemu version required (traditional or the new default)? 2. What (if anything) should be done after removing the resistors

Hello, I am about to try the AMD patch to test primary passthrough and had a couple of questions. First, is there a host for the patch or is it only what was released to the mailing list in the past? Second, does the primary patch allow Xen''s VNC to connect to the GPU instead of emulated graphics? If not, does anyone know whether it would be possible to connect Xen''s VNC to

The OpRegion shouldn''t be mapped 1:1 because the address in the host can''t be used in the guest directly. This patch traps read and write access to the opregion of the Intel GPU config space (offset 0xfc). To work correctly this patch needs a change in hvmloader. HVMloader will allocate 2 pages for the OpRegion and write this address on the config space of the Intel GPU. Qemu

I just built 4.3.0 in order to get > 2GB of RAM in domU with GPU passthrough without crashes. Unfortunately, the same crashes still happen. Massive frame buffer corruption on domU before it locks up solid. It seems the PCI memory stomp is still happening. I am using qemu-dm, as I did on Xen 4.2.x. So whatever fix for this went into 4.3.0 didn''t fix it for me. Passing less than 2GB

Hi, I tried to attach passrough io device to domU, the command (ended successfully in dom0), but when I entered the domU and typed the "lspci" command I didn''t see the new device, although the dom0 removed it from the "pci-list-assignable-devices". When I tried to detach it from the domU, the detach command returned with timeout error. What did I miss? perhaps I

Hi, everyone! I am working on xen-4.2.0 with spice remote connect. My host is Fedora 14 and guest is win7. I have installed spice package and now I can connect to guest by spice client. For better graphics experience, I want to try the VGA passthrough. With spice tool, I have to create a VM by xl command, and now I am wondering if it supports VGA passghrouth? If so, how should I test it ?

Folks, I download the Neocleus 1:1 patch from following link: http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2007-05/msg01144.html Currently I want to add Neocleus 1:1 Patch to the xen-3.1.0 to make the HVM guest grab the device directly. When I add these patches and recompile and install the Xen source and try to start the HVM guest, the HVM guest can not start and the system hang.

Hi all I already posted about this problem on xen-users some time ago (http://markmail.org/message/sbgtyjqh6bzmqx4s) but I couldn''t resolve my problem using help from people on xen-users, so I''m posting here . I have a problem with enabling IOMMU on Xen 4.2.1. When I enable it in BIOS and in grub.conf using iommu=1 kernel option, my machine cannot boot. I get a following error

Hi Gordan, I wanted to let you know that today I decided to have a try for my GTX 680. Gigabite GTX 680 2048 MB GDDR5. I know that this particular card could be hard-moded to GRID K2 so VGA passthrough could work. Following instructions found on http://www.eevblog.com/forum/chat/hacking-nvidia-cards-into-their-professional-counterparts/420/ I just removed two resistors. Here is a screenshot
