I know this post is a bit off-topic and I should go to the QEMU-related forums for help, but I don't know where to ask for help.

Since I'm experiencing this problem with PVE, I thought someone here might be able to help me out.

PVE Info
proxmox-ve: 8.1.0 (running kernel: 6.5.13-1-pve)
pve-manager: 8.1.4 (running version: 8.1.4/ec5affc9e41f1d79)
proxmox-kernel-helper: 8.1.0
proxmox-kernel-6.5: 6.5.13-1
proxmox-kernel-6.5.13-1-pve: 6.5.13-1

QEMU Info
pve-qemu-kvm: 8.1.5-2
qemu-server: 8.0.10

Description of the problem
I try to use GVT-g + DMA-BUF and add `display=on` according to the method in this thread in the forum , vGPU display output can be displayed normally on noVNC

But when I try use SPICE, VM would not boot, come up with error: kvm: The console requires display DMABUF support.

I Google it, but get Nothing useful info,here is some links:

Bug #1926952 “SPICE support broken with 6.0” : Bugs : QEMU (launchpad.net)

GVT-g + -spice error since qemu 6 (#497) · issue · QEMU / QEMU · GitLab

The console requires display DMABUF support - Support / Virtualization - Manjaro Linux Forum

From what I understand, egl-headless is supposed to support dmf-buf, but SPICE doesn't think so!


This is the complete QEMU startup command：
