It might be possible, just no one has implemented it in a way that does not require complex processing by trusted parts of system. There is an attempt called XenGT (for Intel iGPUs), but I am not sure about its state and at least it is not integrated to Qubes yet. Regards, Vít Šesták 'v6ak' --

Qubes does not have GPU virtualization for security reasons. As a result, additional GPU is used only in dom0 (od GuiVM in future). GPU might be useful for: * additional output like HDMI (well, good luck…) * window manager acceleration (but integrated GPU usually does the job well for less powe

I don't know anything about your specific hardware, but it is true that secondary GPUs are often not connected to the display itself, but rather the rendering takes place there and then the rendered frames are passed back to the host and to the integrated gpu to be put on your display.

Biggest issue that limits you with nvidia is the fact that drivers detect that it is running in a VM / HVM etc.. It is possible to get nvidia drivers installed into Qubes (dont recommend it) and then you can pass a prime device through to a app VM with little issue. Ive done this for doing cuba-
