Hello,

 

 I kinda noobies then comes to stuff about ESXi, but I having trouble all day.  I made two VM one Linux another window. trying passthrough and video card (Radeon 580) with windows vm everything works wonderfuly. but with linux i set it too passthrough gpu everything same as windows but no video shows on the monitor but then i look through remote console Linux booted fine.

are you trying to pass through the same GPU to both VM´s or do you have two installed?

Does it show up in the linux box under lspi?

 

What distro are you running? What driver is loaded for the gpu? Might have to do some xorg config.

Have you tried rebooting the machine and booting Linux first?

Hrm, so the card shouldn't be in a bad state then if you've booted the machine and only run the Linux VM on it. 

 

When you start X, what happens?  Assuming X starts up, what do the X logs say?  Start X on the console and the do a xrandr.  It might be xorg is just starting on the console but it can see and use the card if you config it to.

Now i trying on ubuntu i think its more user friendly but same problem . i tried writing xrandr commands
