Hi All, In an effort to *validate* my successful Intel IGD passthru with QEMU/KVM, more completely, I attempted two of the other popular available releases as of now : Ubuntu 15.10 64-bit and Windows 10 LTSB 64-bit and they work smoothly.
Here are their demo videos : *Ubuntu 15.10 64-bit as the guest* : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_VXTDgqnHg *Windows 10 LTSB 64-bit as guest* : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmKzRGT2cjI Cheers, Raghavan On Sat, Jan 23, 2016 at 3:08 PM, Raghavan Santhanam <raghavani...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi All, > > As I mentioned, here is the Intel IGD Passthru in action, that's fully > working without any issues, with QEMU/KVM running hardware-accelerated > Android-x86 5.1/Lollipop : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBN1DmarJ7k > > Thank you all once again for the wonderful work on QEMU/KVM/XEN since many > years! > > Best, > Raghavan > > > On Wed, Jan 20, 2016 at 9:31 AM, Raghavan Santhanam < > raghavani...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Hi Gerd, >> >> Thanks for the update. >> >> Actually, I have already got Intel IGD passthru to work couple of days >> back with git commit being >> at f02ccf53693758b65843264e077f90cf295e7d98(disas/libvixl: Really suppress >> gcc 4.6.3 sign-compare warnings). >> >> As far as Qemu is concerned, I am using default machine.
