I’ve used GPU passthrough for quite a while in Qubes and it’s been… decent. I usually used a Debian 12 VM for it, as the installation of drivers was the simplest there. Unfortunately, I’ve started running into hard-to-debug problems with Proton which I can only blame on Debian’s old packages (no idea if I’m correct).
As such, I’ve tried to set up a different GPU template. Arch was simple to install, drivers too, but for some reason the performance (with PRIME) is just extremely horrible, ~7fps in games in which I could do 60+ on Debian. Game was running on the dGPU, just so so slowly for some reason.
This is how I’ve come to trying to install nvidia drivers in a Fedora Template, but no matter if I try using fc41 or fc42, akmod falls over during compilation with cryptic errors, googling which only leads me to a github issue for nixos patches for the drivers…?
That’s why I’d like to ask: has anyone managed to get nvidia drivers installed on fc41/fc42 in Qubes? If so, what steps did you take?
