For me it was the reverse - ntfs-3g was constantly corrupting my windows drives because apparently NTFS is incredibly complicated and it can only handle a subset of that. But, the last time I used dual boot setup was more than 5 years ago. Has this gone any better nowadays?

drathvedro ,

Re-installs are for scrubs windows users. We don't do that here. SSH from other machine, chroot from live usb, switch to TTY or even UEFI interactive shell. Fix your shit, and get to understand how it works while at it.

drathvedro ,

Exactly! I rant about this a lot, but I know at least couple of people who run with laptops that have broken audio. As it turns out, installing sound card drivers is not really an option as the janky-ass drivers that the manufacturers put out nowadays can irreparably brick your entire system. It is beyond my understanding why recovery, restore, and even safe mode would even try to load them in the first place, but, apparently they do, and then crash before you could even do anything, leaving re-install as the only option.

Meanwhile, I rm -rf-ed my /boot directory the other day, and then df-ed a couple gigs of /dev/zero straight into /dev/sda. Got it back up running in just a few hours... of kicking myself for why would I do such a stupid thing.

drathvedro ,

Oh yeah. Given how close the keys are together I might have tried to use dc and ss as well

I'm literally crying looking at this. People are mad that there are 8.6% of nazis, meanwhile, over here in Russia, there's like 7.8% reps in the upper house and <4% in the lower who might secretly NOT be a nazi. The rest are pretty open about it.

drathvedro ,

You'd have to be completely out of your mind to call the Donbas war a genocide. And that's coming from Russian national who frequently calls out Ukraine government for being the same sort of garbage as Russian, if not much worse.

So unless this is some form of high level meta-sarcasm and/or trolling, I'd advise you and everyone who upvoted this to seek therapy.

It is said that the true linux developer can survive for months at a time on nothing but a piece of dead skin from a callus on his foot and the energy of the community-maintained free and open-source software

Windows, too. Turns out, there's a hard-coded image size limit. If you've got a ~5k screen or bigger, or equivalent size virtual desktop with multiple monitors - you gotta find a way to compress it below limit. Nope, webp is not accepted, even though it is perfectly capable of using it.

Sorry, but disk erasure is not available in the trial version of Disk© Partition® Wizard™ 2002. To use this feature, please upgrade to Disk© Partition® Wizard™ Pro 2002 for just $49.99 at Whythefuckdoievenneedthis.co.uk/shop

drathvedro ,

Any specific issues? Pretty sure there's lots of people in this sub who could help you out with that, myself included.

drathvedro ,

This is, indeed, uncommon. Typically the GPU either gets detected(abeit, often with errors), or the VM doesn't start at all. Do you use libvirt by and chance?

drathvedro ,

But are you launching VM via virsh/virt-manager or directly using qemu-system-x86_64? Could you provide the XML or the command line you're using? What does lspci -k say in regards to your GPU's?

drathvedro ,

Do you want the overview XML or for a specific category within virt-manager?

A full XML, unless you have something private in there, which you can remove. I just remember that for nvidia's there could be parts preventing load anywhere. In my case, for example, it was booting a BIOS VM instead of UEFI one.

shows both my GPUs are there now

But what's the driver used? Should be something like this (my laptop for example, without irrelevant lines)

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GA104 [Geforce RTX 3070 Ti Laptop GPU] (rev a1)
	Kernel driver in use: vfio-pci
01:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GA104 High Definition Audio Controller (rev a1)
	Kernel driver in use: vfio-pci
06:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Rembrandt (rev c7)
	Kernel driver in use: amdgpu
06:00.1 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Device 1640
	Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel

the BM says iommu group is not viable

Well that's something. Check the script at arch wiki on VFIO, at the paragraph "2.2 Ensuring that the groups are valid". It should print out the IOMMU groups you have in your system.

Basically, a thing with IOMMU is that you must pass all or none of the devices down to VM within each IOMMU group, even if you don't necessarily want them in your VM. In most cases, that means also passing the built-in sound card that feeds audio via HDMI outputs (the .1's in the above example). In cases where there's something else crucial in that IOMMU group, there's ACS patch but that's a hack and should only be used as a last resort.

drathvedro ,

Aight. I understand, VFIO is a kickflip of linux world and it takes a lot of pain, frustration and patience to do, so take your time.

Also, the next time you go for it, maybe give supergfxctl a shot, if you haven't already, if it works it should be pretty straightforward.

drathvedro ,

Yep, just like slack, spotify, and anything else looking fancy while wasting few gigs of ram to just open. They're built on electron, which is practically chrome without tabs.
