Basically the title. I’ve only ever seen huge 20 page guides on how to make it work. Is there an easy way?

Specifically on Debian or Arch with a laptop with two gpus (zephyrus g14)

    @Ptsf Haven’t played any of those. Anyway, there is a way to edit your xml to fake the machine id.

      machine id isn’t necessarily the important part. anticheat and vm detection check a lot of different heuristics incl hard to defend against things like timing attacks on particular cpu instructions. there’s a handful of open source versions if you’re curious

        @brian To be honest, until and unless it becomes a problem for me, not really. KVM has the host CPU executing the VM instructions so timing on CPU instructions should product identical results. I have the VM setup as CPU and GPU pass through.

          even with cpu passthrough some things are still emulated. you can run a vm detector and see for yourself what tests fail.

          it may not affect your games but others should still be careful since it is a real issue, and people do get banned for it.

                @brian I have used it and with flyff at least the performance was far insuperior to kvm/qemu.

                    @Sheldan Yes I am referring to the game, back when I had tried on vmware it was still the main commercial one that I was playing, I have since moved to Insanity Flyff. One of those minor continuities in my life.
