      im trying to pass my amd rx 6700 xt through to a vm and i am struggling to get any graphical display in linux running on it because the vm console is considered the primary display

      i tried disable_pv_vnc and platform:vga=none, pv vnc just made it not visible but still there, vga=none did nothing

      this has been my one issue with xcp so far and its a very frustrating one for me

        @kait If you haven't I would recommend you start with reviewing the documentation here https://docs.xcp-ng.org/compute/.

        Troubleshooting documentation here may be of help next https://docs.xcp-ng.org/troubleshooting/

          Took some digging to find the 2.0 drivers, of which your card doesn't show as supported. https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/5932/vgpu-amd-mxgpu-iso-nowhere-to-find/4

          You may be able to install the supplemental driver pack anyways, but I'd make no guarantee that it'll work.

          Edit: Specific Drivers list for your card: https://www.amd.com/en/support/graphics/amd-radeon-6000-series/amd-radeon-6700-series/amd-radeon-rx-6700-xt

              I assumed you were attempting to use passthrough.
