Im currently running ubuntu 20.04 and i want to have a vm that has my gtx 1060 and use the intel graphics for the host. I followed the guide and got to the " Verify the isolation" section and when i run lspci my graphics card still lists nvidia as the driver instead of vfio-pci, ive looked over and over and cant figure out what i did wrong. Any ideas? heres all the files i modified:
❯ sudo cat /etc/initramfs-tools/modules
# List of modules that you want to include in your initramfs.
# They will be loaded at boot time in the order below.
#
# Syntax: module_name [args ...]
#
# You must run update-initramfs(8) to effect this change.
#
# Examples:
#
# raid1
# sd_mod
vfio vfio_iommu_type1 vfio_virqfd vfio_pci ids=10de:1c03,10de:10f1
~
❯ sudo cat /etc/modules
# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be loaded
# at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.
vfio vfio_iommu_type1 vfio_pci ids=10de:1c03,10de:10f1
~
❯ sudo cat /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf
softdep nouveau pre: vfio-pci
softdep nvidia pre: vfio-pci
softdep nvidia* pre: vfio-pci
~
❯ sudo cat /etc/modprobe.d/vfio.conf
options vfio-pci ids=10de:1c03,10de:10f1
also my grub config:
❯ sudo cat /etc/default/grub
# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update
# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
# For full documentation of the options in this file, see:
# info -f grub -n 'Simple configuration'
GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden
GRUB_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="intel_iommu=on rd.driver.pre=vfio-pci"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
# Uncomment to enable BadRAM filtering, modify to suit your needs

# Uncomment to disable graphical terminal (grub-pc only)
#GRUB_TERMINAL=console

# you can see them in real GRUB with the command `vbeinfo'
#GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480
# Uncomment if you don't want GRUB to pass "root=UUID=xxx" parameter to Linux
#GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true
# Uncomment to disable generation of recovery mode menu entries
#GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"
# Uncomment to get a beep at grub start
#GRUB_INIT_TUNE="480 440 1"
Ok so i got the card owned by vfio! just added vfio-pci.ids=10de:1c03,10de:10f1 to my grub so im closing this as solved
