Dear Gordan, I have a Gigabyte Geforce GTX 560. Is it possible to mod it into a Quadro? If it is possible, please give me the link with the list of steps to mod it into a Quadro. Is it a simple process? Thank you very much. -- Yours sincerely, Singapore Citizen Mr. Teo En Ming (Zhang Enming)

Hi All- Is it possible yet to pass through a ATI or Nvidia GPU as the primary VGA card to a Win 7/8 VM, and have it fully functional there (DXVA etc), without crashing the guest or the host during operation or when resetting the guest? For hardware I have an E3 v2 Xeon, Tyan S5512 board, and an ATI 7750. Thanks! David _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list

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

Hi Gordan, I received my Asus GTX 480 today (bought on ebay). Finally I succeeded in - quadrifying my GTX 480  into a Quadro 6000 ( softmod). - overpassing the 3-4GB of RAM on Windows XP 64 bits (domU) by applying a well known patch for Xen. - playing Crysis 2 and Darksiders II for a few minutes. http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/953254ScreenshotXenSoftModedQuadro6000.png Using nvlfash I

Is there anyone actually using VT-d for GPU cards? From what I understand NVidia is impossible, but AMD does work for some cards. I would appreciate any hints from people that are actively using this technology. -- Simon Toth

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

Due to popular demand, I have finally found time to write this up. I had to rush it a little, but hopefully you get the gist. http://www.altechnative.net/2013/11/25/virtualized-gaming-nvidia-cards-part-3-how-to-modify-a-fermi-based-geforce-into-a-quadro-geforce-gts450gtx470gtx480-to-quadro-200050006000/ Any questions, please ask away, and I''ll update the article to expand on those

Hi, I''m trying to get VGA passthrough to work to an XP x64 guest, and I''m seeing "interesting" things happening. I''m using the kernel and userspace tools from here: http://xen.crc.id.au/support/guides/install/# on Scientific Linux 6. I gave up on trying to get an Nvidia card to work in the guest having read about the extra patches required to get a

Hello Xen Users, I have attached the latest copy of my own documentation in PDF format as well as some error files related to the latest tests I ran. I have documented the steps I took to reach my current situation. While I have a "working" install, it is not optimal and there are several problems and questions I would like to address: - If Dom0 is a privileged DomU, should we be

Hi everyone, after following in the footsteps of the following discussion (http://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-users/2013-09/msg00106.html) I had been able to turn my GTX 480 into a Quadro 6000. When I VT-d passthrough it to a Debian jessie VM it shows up fine and CUDA 5.5 seems to function properly up to a point: lspci -v: 00:04.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF100GL

Aloha! Concisely, I''ve been trying for several days to get VGA/PCI passthrough working. Regarding VGA vs PCI passthrough, I''m not entirely certain of the difference? Does Xen perform a different set of operations when passing through a VGA card versus any PCIe card? I''ve read the wiki and it seems the answer is "yes;" however, when passing through a

Hello, I''ve successfully passed a unmodified GTX 760 to Win7 x64. It involved some driver patching on the client side but I''m close to getting the required steps on the server side, too. Are there any legal issues that might arise from releasing a patch? Bob [image: Inline image 1] _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xen.org

Hi everyone, I would like to ask what the current status of FLR, or better of FLR emulation is in latest Xen and if we can expect better support in the future. I''m asking because with xl (latest build and traditional qemu, not upstream), I always had problems with rebooting domUs which have vga cards passed through to them, because appearently they don''t get reinitialized and

Hello, I hope that I am posting the correct list with this question. I have been trying to get VGA passthrough working on my system for some time now without success. I do not have the system with me right now, so I will not be able to provide any logs or error messages right now. I will be able to to do so in a couple of hours. I have a VT-d enabled system (Motherboard and CPU) on which I wish
