Create a virtual machine with QEMU
by scorpion77 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5G9RX)
Hi,
I'm trying do make a virtual machine using QEMU so that I can remove dual boot with Windows 10. I read that QEMU supports PCI Passthrough, so I can use my graphics card with maximum performance.
When I run virt-manager, I got stuck at step 5 of 5, and I got this error:
libvirt.libvirtError: unsupported configuration: domain configuration does not support video model 'qxl'
I tried to change with Video VGA, but I got another error:
libvirt.libvirtError: unsupported configuration: USB redirection is not supported by this version of QEMU
I installed a lot of packages, here they are:
qemu
vde
audit
virt-manager
libvirt
libosinfo
osinfo-db
osinfo-db-tools
spice-protocol
xf86-video-qxl
urlgrabber
yajl
spice-guest-tools
vala
opus
spice-gtk - pacchetto gia fatto
meson
ninja
gtk-vnc - pacchetto gia fatto
usbredir
My hardware configuration should be compliant with IOMMU:
Mainboard: ASRock X570 Steel Legend
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
Graphics card: Radeon RX 580
Is someone already using a Windows guest with PCI passthrough? Could you tell me the right configuration? So finally I will be able to remove the Windows partition and use it only for necessity (especially games) with QEMU.
Many thanks in advance.
