So I have both an igpu and dgpu, which means this should be easy, yeah?

Namely, Ryzen 9 7900 and RTX 4070ti.

But for the love of god I can’t get any installation working correctly with this combo OOB.

I’ve tried Nix. I’ve tried Arch. I’ve tried Garuda. I’ve tried Endeavour. I’ve tried Pop! OS.

I’ve also tried Proxmox, Truenas Scale, and Unraid, Smart OS, and others.

But there’s always something wrong with display.

    I don’t know what you are trying to do, but you could setup a gpu less Linux base System and then use a virtual machine to actually run your daily os. If this makes things easier

      Could you elaborate a bit?

      Isn’t Proxmox etc. “Gpu less”, as they only use tty instead of anything like a WM or DE?

      I’d prefer a “master” / hypervisor running a bunch of VM’s for different purposes.

      Whether they be for gaming, pirating, development, pen testing, home automation, porn, or anything else really.

      'Course I’d only be running gpu passthrough into a single VM at a time, can’t split a single GPU into 50 passthroughs yet.

        Well of course you can use proxmox or tuenas but for “more performance” I would just setup qemu to pass through gpus and input to the vm.

        However I don’t know if this is worth the hassle.
