Hello Alex, > Ok, so it's probably X. You might be able to start your guest from here > and get VGA through the gtx660 (assuming nothing else is broken with > radeon VGA arbiter support).

Thanks, After I issue startx in runlevel 1, dmesg indeed does show numerous vgaarb: this pci device is not a vga device messages, but also once this: vgaarb: device changed decodes: PCI:0000:01:00.0,olddecodes=io+mem,decodes=none:owns=none After having booted into runlevel 1 again, not starting X, I have tried to invoke qemu without any disk and vfio-pci devices, as described in my first mail, to see whether I could see SeaBIOS output on the screen I passed through. Both times i tried this now, my complete host system seemed to have frozen, then suddenly restarted itself. When I boot the Windows DomU with pci-assign, the Windows Device Manager does recognize a second graphics card, but does not label it as a GFX 660, but a standard VGA device. Also, it says "device could not be started (Code 10)". Unfortunately, I haven't noticed the following up until now: Early during boot, I am shown the message "kvm: no hardware support". After booting has completed, dmesg | grep -i kvm gives [ 0.949028] kvm: no hardware support [ 0.949156] kvm: Nested Virtualization enabled [ 0.949160] kvm: Nested Paging enabled I'm a bit confused, since it seems like kvm says AMD-V is not enabled, but still seems to work. Maybe it's related to the issue at hand? Please let me know what I can do next to help resolve this.
