minus-squareKlara@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·11 months agoI’ve really wanted to try bhyve but the lack of hardware passthrough support (PCIe GPU passthrough in my case) compared to KVM keeps me from it as of right now. Looks really good though.
minus-squareSethayy@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up3·11 months agoAny other BSD-based vm’s that do (PCI pass through that is)? Ive wanted to swap my debian server over for a while, but the occasional windows only software is keeping me in linux (what a time to be alive lol)
