Use a single gpu for wine and vm pcie pass-through in c/linux@lemmy.ml

If you mean this manager it's a tool to create the initial vfio configuration for the passthrough. You can do it by hand.

Use a single gpu for wine and vm pcie pass-through (feddit.de)

Hi!

It's just an idea to make dualboot superfluous.

Is it possible to do that:

  • Run Wayland on the integrated gpu (igpu).
  • Run Wine/Proton on the discreet gpu (dgpu) and play games.
  • If you don't want to run wine, run (manually) a script that detaches the dgpu from the linux system and free it for vm pass-through usage.
  • Run Windows in a vm with the dgpu and play games.
  • Still have the option to switch on the fly to the linux system because it runs independently on the igpu. Both dgpu and igpu need to be connected separately to your monitor for that to work. Might need a KVM switch to well... switch mouse, keyboard and active display between linux and vm.
  • If you shutdown the vm run (manually) a script to detach the dgpu from vm pass-through and reattach it to the linux system for wine use.

In theory it should work but I read about errors on some AMD gpus (RX 5000 series? can't remember) that needed a system reboot every time you reattach them to the linux system again. I don't know if that bug still exists on more modern AMD gpus (RX 6000 & 7000 series)

What do you think? Is it possible? Are there showstoppers I'm unaware of?

You can try one of the phones that are supported by Ubuntu Touch. I don't know how good it runs but there are several cheap (= old) phones on the list.

I'm pretty sure default Android runs almost always on F2FS.

The OS splits memory into pages and assigns the pages to applications. A page fault usually means one of two things:

  • hardware fault
  • programming error

You can check your memory with Memtest86. Some LiveCDs come with it. If it's a programs fault you can only try other software if possible.

Best RAM for AMD 7800X3D? (feddit.de)

I'm going to build a new gaming rig and am not sure which RAM to buy. I do want the best RAM available but I won't overclock it. Afaik the CPU will work best at DDR5-6000 and won't profit much from higher frequencies.

A lot of people recommend the G.Skill Ripjaws. I found these two: DDR5-6400, CL32-39-39-102 DDR5-6800, CL34-46-46-108

Those are kits but I'll probably only buy one module. 48 GB are enough for the next few years.

If I let them run at 6000 which one of them works best?

Linux on Android (feddit.de)

I'm currently messing around with Termux and trying to install Linux through AnLinux, Andronix and UserLAnd just for fun.

I have mixed success in AnLinux. I successfully installed and started Lubuntu but it was running pretty slowly. I wasn't able to replicate the install a while later. Also I totally failed to get ArchLinux running.

Now I'm trying Andronix. Wish me luck!

Do you have any experience running a Linux on your mobile?
