My GPU card has two GPUs so I'd like run run one container with access to /dev/nvidia0 and the other one with access to /dev/nvidia1.

Currently I only try to start X server on /dev/tty1 on my laptop without GPU but my final goal is to do it on a > machine that has GPU. > > I hope that I give a more clear picture of my goal :) Regards, > Guillaume > > I haven't used x windows in my container. If you want use /dev/tty of host in container. Please have a try as below cat device.xml <hostdev mode='capabilities' type='misc'> <source> <char>/dev/tty</char> </source> </hostdev> You can use virsh cmd "attach-device domainname device.xml" to hot plug this tty device to the container. You can add the xml into configure file too. _______________________________________________ libvirt-users mailing list libvirt-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvirt-users
