I received an error while attempting GPU passthrough error. Is there any way to resolve this?

The error message is as follows:

Use the Primary GPU option only for NVidia GPUs, you don't need it for other GPUs. Just set Display of the VM to none when doing passthrough of other GPUs.

EDIT: You are trying to passthrough an Intel integrated graphics? That is more difficult and sometimes never works. Please search this forum for someone having success with the same integrated graphics and find out what kind of special work-around they needed.

Hi I have a NVIDIA GT740 and the GPU passthro works perfectly with a Windows Machine. But it doesnt work with a Ubuntu 22.04. I'm getting the same error




Code:
generating cloud-init ISO
