Is it worth me continuing to hack away at these problems---of course I'm happy
to share anything I come up with---or is there an official solution to GPU
support in the pipe about to make my efforts redundant :)?
Thanks,
Robert Crowston.
As far as I know, the nVidia drivers actively try to deny use of
consumer video cards inside a VM guest and error 43 might be a symptom
of this.
Some people have managed to get round this with some non-FreeBSD VM
setups that hide the VM-guest aspect, or change their GPU's reported
hardware/vendor IDs, but I've never managed to recreate this in Bhyve.
e.g. see Question 10 at
http://vfio.blogspot.com/2014/08/vfiovga-faq.html and also the comments
at the bottom of the page.
