Hi guys, Short version: https://git.mel.vin/melvin/scripts/tree/master/qemu
Long version: In my previous mail[1] I promised I would send updates to this mailing list when I made progress with runtime switching and such. Today I finally got around to reworking all my local scripts into something clean. Upon login, it asks you what card you want to use for the X session. It then configures all bindings and such and launches X. From the X session you can launch the VM using the Qemu scripts. What's special is that runtime switching is possible, although a restart of X is needed. If you close the X session and return to the tty, you can select your option again. This means you can easily and quickly switch between GPUs. I did the first testing on my system again and everything seems solid. Workflow is smooth. Literally the only con is that X needs to be restarted, but I doubt X can handle dynamic device and screen attachment. To make that issue more complicated OpenGL libraries need to changed (mesa vs nvidia) which is also handled by the scripts. Check out the gitlab repository[2] for more information, it's public and can be cloned over HTTPS. It runs on my own server, so try again later if it's down or otherwise unreachable. Regards, Melvin.
