[Xen-users] VGA Passthrough for a HVM linux guest

[LINSCHOTEN Rob <rob.linschoten@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

List,

 

I have set up a XEN hypervisor (XENCloud Platform 1.5 beta) with a RedHat 6.1 Linux HVM guest. The guest should run an OpenGL application which uses the GPU extensively, I need the XEN VGA Passthrough option in order

to run this application normally. I read the arcticles on the Xen-Wiki about Xen VGA Passthrough support but I am still confused on how to configure the VGA passthrough.

 

My questions are: Is the required configuration with the VGA passthrough possible? and How can I configure the Xen Hypervisor

 

thanks,

 

Rob
