Hi all,
first post here, I'm new to Proxmox, I've been playing with it for the past couple of weeks to set up a homelab. I was able to install TrueNAS Scale and passthrough 2 HDDs to create a pool and I was ble to migrate that pool to a different TrueNAS Scale VM. Now I'm trying to setup an Ubuntu server 24.04 and passthrough the GPU to use with PhotoPrism and Jellyfin, but VM won't start with the GPU added to the configuration. I've checked dozens of posts about the issue I'm having and I was able to solve many errors but now I'm stuck, maybe it's related to 8.2 and its kernel but I'm not sure how to work around that.
Now journalctl is showing the following error:
My understanding is that this failed connection to vncproxy is a consequence and not the real issue so I run out of things to troubleshoot. If I remove the GPU it boots just fine, that's why I'm leaning towards having an issue with the kernel since 8.2 went live as mentioned before.
My setup:
i5 9600k, 64gb RAM, MSI Z370-A PRO, ASUS 1070Ti, RAID1 ZFS (2x 1tb Crucial BX500).
My configs:
1. /etc/kernel/cmdline
Run proxmox-boot-tool refresh and reboot
2. /etc/modules
3. /etc/modprobe.d/vfio.conf
4. /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
5. /etc/modprobe.d/kvm.conf
6. /etc/modprobe.d/iommu_unsafe_interrupts.conf
7. dmesg | grep -e DMAR -e IOMMU
8. lspci
9. /etc/pve/qemu-server/101.conf (ubuntu server 24.04)
Note
I rebooted many times after changes but I can't recall the exact order to be honest.
Something else worth mentioning, when I run update-initramfs -u -k all I get the following:
I'm just suspicious that there are 2 kernel entries although I checked and running uname - r shows
I appreciate any help you can give me, and if you need any other configs or logs please let me know, I tried to cover everything I changed but I wouldn't be surprised if I'm missing something.
Thanks,
Leo

romfile=1070ti.comadded to hostpci0, that's one of the last things I added because I was seeing an error on journalctl related to ROM, with this it went away. I downloaded the ROM from https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/.I rebooted many times after changes but I can't recall the exact order to be honest.
Something else worth mentioning, when I run update-initramfs -u -k all I get the following:
