That has DX7 tops and should be able to play the game just fine.
#QEMU VGA PASSTHROUGH XP GUEST INSTALL#
If your game requires DX6, I would get a cheap second hand PC and install Windows 98 on it. Don't expect it on short notice, it can take a year or two, maybe more, maybe less. It is however in R&D.ģ) R&D means it's not possible now, but the possibilities are checked out. Add your GART requirement, you're toast.Ģ) Nope, not supported whatsoever. It doesn't have a physical PCI bus address. It's integrated in the CPU and can therefore be very hard to 'unplug' from the OS.

Jul 2011, 10:03 Primary OS: Linux other VBox Version: PUEL Guest OSses: Windows XP x86, Gentoo Linux x86ġ) You would never be able to. if I were to buy a cheap PCI video card, would I be able to pass that through?ģ) if it's not (yet) supported/possible, is it going to be? or can it simply not be done? I am not sure whether this applies to me, but seeing as the agpgart module is required on my Linux host to be able to use the Intel GPU, things are not looking good.ġ) am I correct in that I cannot passthrough my Intel integrated GPU to a VM?Ģ) is VGA passthrough supported at all? e.g. Unfortunately I did read this in the manual: "AGP and certain PCI Express cards are not supported at the moment if they rely on GART (Graphics Address Remapping Table) unit programming for texture management". However, I do have a VT-d-capable system, and I can spare my Intel integrated GPU. VirtualBox uses the same Wine wrapper for 3D passthrough, so it does not work by default either. The OpenGL wrapper from Wine fails miserably so I can't play it under Linux, and the game does not run on my 64-bit Windows 7 host either. I have this incredibly old game which I'd love to play again, but it requires DirectX 6 acceleration.

, run it with qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -cpu host -smp 4 -drive if=virtio,format=raw,file=windows10 -display sdl,gl=on -device qemu-xhci,id=usb-bus -device usb-tablet -device VGA,edid=on,xres=1920,yres=1080Īnd lo and behold: Full resolution within the Windows 10 guest! The SDL UI is very responsive.I'd like to know where we're at regarding PCI passthrough. configure -target-list=x86_64-softmmu -enable-sdl -enable-opengl It now generates EDID information! I compiled it with.
#QEMU VGA PASSTHROUGH XP GUEST DRIVERS#
Using -vga qxl and appropriate guest drivers is an alternative, but. Within the guest, you can manually install a monitor with the desired resolution, but Windows will still wait for EDID.
#QEMU VGA PASSTHROUGH XP GUEST DRIVER#
In theory, you could hack Microsoft's "Basic Display Driver" as done at, but this will fail for Windows 7 or later as driver signature checks are encouraged. This behaviour is hardcoded and cannot be changed. Windows 10 does not receive EDID and consequently falls back to 800圆00. Unfortunately, qemu does not emulate a virtual monitor. As soon as I use EFI boot style with OVMF, Windows chooses to rely on monitor supplied EDID exclusively. This only works with the legacy BIOS boot procedure.

The official list of resolutions is fixed (see qemu bug 498421) but can be changed if you compile it yourself (see ). The list of resolutions available is generated in the virtual "std" graphics card BIOS. As far as my research went, this simply is not possible due to the unfortunate combination of OVMF EFI and Windows. I had this working once, but it fell apart when I switched from Windows XP to Windows 10.

If it's not possible to easily reach FHD, even a lower one is OK (anything but 800圆00!). It's acceptable if the solution requires installing drivers, but I'm inclined not to execute QEMU from a remote desktop connection. When I execute using -vga vmware, I get Guest has not initialized the display (yet)., which I'm not sure if it's a bug or I'm not configuring my system or QEMU properly. How can I configure/execute QEMU in order to get the expected resolution? drive if=pflash,format=raw,readonly,file=$OVMF_20160813_BIN \ configure -target-list=x86_64-softmmu -enable-debug -enable-gtk # and other parameters The objective is to run a generic Windows (7+) guest with FHD (1920x1080) resolution, without using remote desktop (therefore, directly in the QEMU window), using an Ubuntu 16.04 x86/64 host.
#QEMU VGA PASSTHROUGH XP GUEST PATCH#
This is due to having a patch applied, and to have the latest QEMU version. I compile QEMU by myself, and run it from the commandline. EDIT: Hermann's solution of using QXL is acceptable.
