I thought this was an onion article.

Sr-iov works already though? That’s not needed for this. The motherboard presents the pci bus to the guest regardless of what’s plugged in. Works fine.

This is when you want many guests to have shared graphics by partitioning a gpu. So the host still retains it and presents the graphics card to guests. You need to partition the ram up equally though, so useful only in VDI generally where you want a RTX A6000 like card to split to 10 guests each with 8gb of ram, and they share the gpu, but keep their individual video ram. Economy of scale can work out in graphics or maybe ML situations. Not so useful at home since you’ll probably have a Rtx 3080 with like 10-12gb of ram, and at most you wouldn’t want to split it below 8gb for modern games and partitions need to be equally sized. For 10g two = 2x5gb which would be a poor experience probably. Lots of frame stutters as it switches stuff between ram to video ram.

Hope that helps. Unless this technology unlocks better partitions it’s more about opening to vdi and machine learning in a full open source context like proxmox rather than just the driver being locked behind hyperv vmware and citrix hypervisor/xen and a big yearly license. Maybe it still needs that yearly license.

This is possible now, but in xen or vmware you need to buy a nvidia license to unlock this feature. You can trial it for a minute in a lab but you can’t give 4 guests each 2gb of vram on your graphics card without Nvidia specialist proprietary driver on both the host and the guest.

For vdi where you can buy 48gb rtx a6000 graphics cards, with architects (for example) each user getting each about 8gb each, you can 10 guests concurrently per card. Which at a few hundred architects scales better than buying many $5000 dollar workstations that struggle with WFH.

For a home user, maybe being able to split for your two kids on a standard rtx 3070 with what like 8gb might be OK? Probably not though.

Right now I have a hacky way that isn’t really supported in nvidia to split graphics cards to two guest vms but it’s neither license compatible or what I’d call “production ready”. I’d like proxmox to be able to handle this out of the box because it’s already in the kernel.

I’ve no idea what this means with licensing though. The yearly license cost to allow you to use your driver is actually stupidly expensive. The Rtx A series cards are already dumb money.

Either way it’s a good thing, but probably not much news for the average enthusiast

Pop! Os

Imo.

Printers. Desk phones. Wmi service crashing at full core lock under the guise of svchost.

This is no different to me having a email dedicated to searching for a house to give to real estate agents and someone saying “I don’t think it’s legal that a house has an email”. It was frustrating reading up until your comment that people just didn’t get it.

Google looks. Google reports. Even if you did nothing wrong you’re guilty until you prove innocent and even then you’ll never get your account back.

I spent like 20 minutes self hosting and running over tailscale so traffic is always private… Never had an issue. I’ve got over 20 devices accessible on it.

Easy to remote register over ssh just by sending the installer plus running with server name plus key, then setting a static password.

I still think gaming wide moonlight is great though. You won’t really regret that.

Other then legacy and uefi does it have a CSM compatibility support mode? An option to enable usb initialisation before bios? Eg wait for usb initialisation?

Some “boot faster” options kind of reorder boot initialisation to a point where it’s not holding the system back.

Though I’m really running out of suggestions… I can imagine you’re pretty frustrated. I know my Dell laptop was a pain to get the right settings to get usb to boot and the stupid 100db beep to silent on boot interruption.

And you probably confirmed that live boot worked too I assume.

In the actual bios, can you see a boot order and see uefi for Windows/whatever is on your internal disk? But not any other entries?

I suggest a few more things:

Try a different brand usb. Different motherboards sometimes don’t support some usb brands. In fact, a Lenovo server I rebuilt refused to boot off certain usbs.

Some motherboards don’t initialise boot off some usb ports. Sometimes the additional ports are on another controller and initialise too slow.

Just try a straight working Ubuntu live boot usb to remove any ventoy from equation. Ubuntu has real signed uefi (and no shim) granted by Microsoft. I think that’s how it works, uefi is a mess.

Try to start isolating all the different factors, and there could be more. It doesn’t necessarily mean anything definitive if it works on another machine.

I just asked google that exact question and it said “The current world population is 8,171,661,997”

I bet to Japanese people it’ll age weirdly with the references it kept making to politicians and actors of the time.

I really enjoyed it when it wasn’t trying to be a shonen jump anime. My favourite episodes like the Nabe Shogun bottle episode, or the several lazy animator episodes either with the drawing quality rock bottom or the paralysis with no animation at all.

I used to watch it on a service called something like animeftw or something that’s no longer around on an xbox xbmc setup. So much nostalgia when I see screen caps.

Consent is important

Well good news! Time to let yourself love again!

I ended up reading it on bleeping computer since the linked site looks like an auto tldr bot saved 50% of the words. The important 50% was discarded.

Ah yep that makes sense though I’m following now

Oh okay, I see… Or rather, I see I don’t understand lol

Wait so, if your kettle fails, your fridge loses power for example?

For me I want to know how much frame latency there is since I’m suspicious and I want to try things to see the effect and I just don’t know how to get that information in an OSD like I can with msi afterburner.

If someone knows what can do this in Linux, please reply!

Instead I just stopped all competitive and cooperative gaming. Which is a bit of a shame. Sometimes I’ll load up windows to join friends but usually by the time I’ve updated whatever game I’ve gotten over it.

Don’t get me wrong, hiccups aside I’m very happy which is why I’m in Linux most of the time. But it’s not always a wonderful world.
