Of course I hit send early.

I'd like to run onboard for the host, and pass through the R9 to the guest.

Host OS is currently antergos with the vfio kernel (I prefer fedora, but
whatever I can make it work with is fine).

I ran into the issue with vga arbitration as noted on the blog, and lost
DRI on the host. I also saw that my R9 didn't have a uefi bios.

The mobo is small enough that I don't really have room to plug in another
card. I don't mind buying additional or new hardware, but at this point I'm
unsure of what I need to make this work.

Any thoughts / suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks,
Tim
