A virtual GPU instance is maintained for each VM, with part of performance critical resources directly assigned. GVT-g supports both Xen and KVM (a.k.a XenGT & a.k.a KVMGT). Intel GVT-g is a full GPU virtualization solution with mediated pass-through (VFIO mediated device framework based), starting from 5th generation Intel Core(TM) processors with Intel Graphics processors. But dual booting is kind of cumbersome so it would be ideal if we could get GPU acceleration in a Windows 10 VM. When GPU acceleration is necessary, dual booting often becomes the solution. When running a Linux desktop it sometimes becomes necessary to run a Windows system. (Windows 10: 12.8FPS, Linux 14.3 FPS), Unigine heaven. But some of their cards do work better than others.Windows 10 VM and Linux comparison. I've got a 290x and it does generally 'just work' but it doesn't necessarily do so with good performance (see Michael's article today showing his 290 continuing to have issues with the default Radeon driver). But yes you can certainly hold back on your end if you like.Īs for AMD just working. You would be expected to know to select the previous kernel version in GRUB if necessary if the new one has problems on your hardware.ĭistros can't hold back updates just because someone's computer didn't work with them. but they made fairly easy to enable Negativo17 repo just for the proprietary drivers, so some consistency should be guaranteed.Many distros, including Fedora, are set up by default to keep multiple kernel versions, and will essentially never delete your current kernel on an upgrade. I know Fedora is devoted to Free Software. More often than not, many users who install proprietary drivers end up with an unusable system after an innocent 'sudo dnf update'. Someone at Fedora should double check the right point in time to let these updates go into the repo. just to stay safe as the Nvidia drivers usually break after upgrading to a major release of the kernel. I guess I have to exclude the kernel from getting updated.
