I've installed F43 in a QEMU/KVM VM and managed to get the 6.18
kernel installed and active, and also seem to have gotten the akmods
nvidia driver compiled as well, although the nvidia server doesn't
seem to be able to communicate. I can't check whether the kernel has
an MT7927 driver embedded in it because the VM can't detect the wifi
device so it doesn't offer me the opportunity to try to connect via
wifi.
Did you give the device to the VM?
I did try to replace the ethernet driver first with MT7927 but that
errored at VM start and secondly I specified MT7925 which I know is in
the host kernel and that failed with the same errors.
How do I give the device to the VM?
In the VM configuration, add hardware, host pci device, pick the wifi
device.
The other issue I have with this is, I have two ethernet controllers on
my motherboard which run at different speeds, both of which, according
to INXI, use different kernel drivers, and the ethernet driver passed in
to the VM seems to be the driver that INXI says is being used for the
ethernet controller I believe I am not actually using.
By default, the VM will have a virtual ethernet device, not one of the
real ones. If you really want to give the VM a physical ethernet
device, then follow the same steps as above, but that's unusual.
