From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So I have both an igpu and dgpu, which means this should be easy, yeah?

Namely, Ryzen 9 7900 and RTX 4070ti.

But for the love of god I can't get any installation working correctly with this combo OOB.

I've tried Nix. I've tried Arch. I've tried Garuda. I've tried Endeavour. I've tried Pop! OS.

I've also tried Proxmox, Truenas Scale, and Unraid, Smart OS, and others.

But there's always something wrong with display.

It's possible you need a dedicated KVM for swapping the input of the iGPU/dGPU shared monitor. If the dGPU is only getting passed through to a VM, I don't believe it will initialize until the VM explicitly takes control of it.

And I think vGPU passthrough is disabled on consumer Ada/Ampere architectures unless there's been a crack developed for it since then?

The turing architecture (RTX 20 series) is the only one I know of that has a crack/drivers available for it but I may be wrong/out of date on that info.
