Hello everyone,

I was curious to try how it work to make a GPU passthrough for a Linux
guest.


I did the same that I do on Winows.

- Create a VM with virt-manager

- Select UEFI

- Install my OS (example Zorin)


At this moment, I may install or not NVIDIA driver it change nothing.

My GPU is always display as unclaimed when I run the command "lshw -C
display".


My GPU is an NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1060 6GB.

If there is a well documented source for passthrought with Linux guest,
feel free to send it here.

I would be happy to try it again with some documentation.


Cheers, and thanks for your help.
