Hi there,

I just built a new home lab setup, and wanted to set up Proxmox there. Unfortunately, I don't have a dedicated GPU in that machine, and I was hoping to use my CPUs Integrated GPU, which is a Intel UHD Graphics 750 in this case.

Unfortunately, the installer doesn't start - it drops me into a root console, and looking at the logs, Xorg fails to start because it can't find a GPU. From a quick Google search, I could find threads like this one on Reddit, where the suggestion is to set i915.force_probe=4c8a here. I tried appending that to the linux line in Proxmox' GRUB (by pressing e, changing the command line, and booting that). Unfortunately, Xorg still refuses to find the GPU.

Is there anything I can do here, or have I just played myself for buying hardware that is too new?

Oh that is great! I wasn't even aware that existed, but with the 5.11 kernel, it works just fine, without even changing a thing. Thanks so much for your help. :)
