I am a fairly new member of the Linux Gaming community. Currently, I am using Manjaro 20.4 with the Linux57 kernel. Works perfectly. I started playing some games and later found out that both Civilization VI and (currently) League Of Legends doesn’t work properly. One because of Epic Games and the other one has some other issue. So I decided to throw my old GTX 750 in my gaming box (R5 2600, 16GB RAM, B350 PC Mate, RX 580 8GB) to play those games on a virtual machine. Everything worked out so far until I recieved an error message when installing the Win10. I found out that my GTX 750 does not reside in it’s own IOMMU group, its sharing one with some bridges, SATA Controller, USB Controller, Ethernet Controller and WiFi controller. I looked a bit into splitting up the IOMMU group but I found out I am a bit too stoopid to figure it out on my own I would really appreciate the help <3
The patch is activated by adding the pcie_acs_override=downstream,multifunction kernel parameter. Where to add kernel parameters depends on what bootloader you are using.
So I download the linux-vfio. It says, it’s for the Linux 5.8.12 kernel. Does it still work with 5.7.19-2? I never downloaded something through the Arch website.
Thank you. When installing it, there came up a “text editor” in the terminal. Should I just save them and not configure anything? Or do I need to do something there?
I just got an error, which approximately says “running makepkg as root is not allowed, because it can have catastrophic effects to your system”. Should I ignore it or do I need to fix that?
I did check my system monitor and it showed all twelve cores being active at 100%. However, I did see some errors during the compiling. Is that worrysome?
Oh, I guess Manjaro already has it set up to be multicore.
Errors or warnings?
For compiling, errors are generally things that stop the compilation. Warnings are generally things that are detected as code that could cause a bug, but it will still finish compiling.
In that case, they were warnings. Right at the end, I got another warning.
WARNING: Possibly missing firmware for module: xhci_pci
