4 GPU passthrough devices, 2 USB controllers, 1 audio device, split amongs 4 VM's.
Using only motherboard USB now. Seems to work with d3d0; would you suggest changing it to something else?
Also, I'm getting random VM lockups when under GPU load (not often, on the order of once in a few hours.) VM locks hard, host is OK, but rebooting the vm puts it into Error 43 with no gpu: need to reboot the host to fix this. The VM with the GPU furthest on the motherboard from the CPU is most often affected. Don't know if this is a pciHole, msiEnable, or agesa problem... grrr.
I looked into the log files when rebooting the VM (into error 43). "Bad" reboots have this at the end: (truncated). There's some earlier stuff about vmware tools not loading either. Anyone know that this stuff means? (This text doesn't appear on normal boots, only after a lockup that yields error 43 on VM reboot).
Thanks LT
