Re: [Xen-users] Nvidia Quadro VGA passthrough experience.



Dear Sandi,

Could you help me passthrough my NVIDIA GTX 560 to Windows XP HVM domU? I really need your help, since you have 100% success.

If you can help me solve my VGA passthrough problem 100%, I will pay you USD$100. This money will help to offset your cost of buying a Quadro 4000.

Thank you very much.

Teo,

I have ordered the Quadro 4000, still waiting for it to be delivered.
It costs about 600 EUR.

I plan to use my system for 3D CAD and PCB design, not so much for game play (although I will play some games).

Regards

Sandi

Sandi,

By the way, what NVIDIA Quadro card have you bought? What is the price?

Dear Sandi,

I cannot even get GTX 560 to work with Windows XP, not to mention Windows 7.

Could you help me get my GTX 560 to work with Windows XP? By the way, Dariusz Krempa mentioned he got VGA Passthrough working with GTX 560 in Windows 7 HVM using David Techer's patches.

As for the one person success story, are you referring to Frank Lyon's NVIDIA Quadro 6000? I have his success story mentioned in the manual I have written.

Thank you very much.

Teo,

I could not get Windows 7 to work with this method.
The Nvidia cards have a serious problem working in a VM. The patches which Davad uses, are very old, and so I believe that they do not properly address the issues with the NVidia cards (please understand that I am not criticizing the work David has done), and from what I have understood, David passes the Nvidia cards through to a Linux VM.

I could only get these patches working with Windows XP. I got the same issue you are describing when I tried to pass the VGA card to Windows 7.

I have abandoned trying to pass through the commercial brand of Nvidia cards, I have ordered an Nvidia Quadro card for this endevour. I have read one persons success story about this (I have not been able to find much info about this online).
The alternative is to use ATI cards. They seam to work almost always with the newer versions of cards.

Also, I have read some people say that ATI is also actively involved with the development of Xen to get passthrough working.
But I don't know how true that is.

Sorry I can't give you the news you would like to hear.

Sandi

Dear Sandi,

I also used David Techer's guide and his patches, but, for some reason, I was only able to get a partially working setup. There is a yellow triangle with exclamation mark and error code 43 for my GTX 560 in Device Manager in Windows 7 and Windows 8 HVM domU.

Could you please read through the guide I have written and see if there are any mistakes, errors or omissions?

http://wiki.xen.org/mediawiki/images/0/0a/Xen_VGA_Passthrough_-_Version_2.1.pdf

I am willing to pay you USD$100 if you can solve my Xen VGA Passthrough problem.

I am assuming you have achieved 100% success without the dreaded error code 43.


Thank you very much.

Teo,

I mostly used David Teachers's guide, and the patches which he has been updating.

Hope this helps in some way.

Hi,

Passing through GTX 460 and GTX 560 is about the same, so I am quite sure you are able to help.

May I know whose tutorial did you follow and whose patches did you use in passing through your GTX 460?

I can be contacted at +65-9323-5112.

Thank you very much.

Teo,

I do not have experience with the 560. I have managed to pass the 480 through to windows XP.

I will be trying the Quadro soon, once I get it.

Hello,

I am trying to decide between Nvidia's Quadro range of video cards and ATI's mainstream video card for my VGA passthough setup.

I have managed to get a mainstream Nvidia (GTX 460) passed through to a VM, but it is a complex process and it does not work as I would like it to work (not possible to reboot windows domU's).

I would like to hear from anyone who has successfully passed a Quadro graphics card (ones that support virtualization) to a windows OS (preferably Windows 7), and what problems or issues they have encountered.

Thanks

Best regards

Sandi
