Re: [Xen-users] VGA Passthru - FLR?

[Gizmo Chicken <gizmochicken@xxxxxxxxx>]

I haven't read every message in this string, so forgive me if I'm missing something.  But just a comment with regard to what was previously stated by another:

"I recommend not using the latest 13-1 because it creates a similar behavior you mentioned on my machine. But catalyst 12-10 seems to work fine, so i would advice you trying that one."

Although I've read that others have had success with Catalyst 12.10, in my case, that driver was not stable for GPU passthrough with an AMD Radeon HD 6670 and a Windows 7 guest.

However, Catalyst 12.3 on a clean install of Windows 7 (on which no other version of Catalyst has ever been installed) works well for me.  (I've read that removal process for Catalyst isn't complete, so a clean install is better.)

Hope the above helps.

I reinstall Fedora 18, kernel 3.6-10 with embedded xen (not as kernel modules) and brought Xen from RPM source (version 4.21)

I had the same results everyone's has achieved with consumer cards (it only works with dom0 freshly booted)

This time, though, I tried primary VGA passthru from the intel onboard, which does have FLR. And it worked smoothly!

Doing a little research, FLR is not the unique way of refreshing a device (theres d3d0, bus and a few others). I'll send an email to AMD and see if they can help us resetting theirs VGAs without rebooting the computer everytime.

Have a nice day
