Have you tried using qemu in a rootful distrobox
? Ive heard it works decently
, although havent tried it

Not yet
. I doubt it would play nicely with GPU passthrough anyway

Do you know any good guides on qemu GPU passthrough on a hybrid graphics system
? It seems really daunting
G
Geechan

Not too sure with hybrid graphics
, unfortunately

I was just thinking if I already have an optimus laptop
, can
't I just run host with my iGPU and dedicate my dGPU to passthrough
?

I
've heard it
's indeed possible
, but trickier than two dGPUs

You might just need to add your ROM file
(but that
's detailed in the guide

Okay
, cool
. Apparently theres something with MUXless and MUXed that makes it easier or harder
, but I have no clue what that means lol

IIRC
, as long as your laptop is newer than 5 years old
(which it will be with a 3000 series
)
, you
'll have MUXless

It
