Hi,

I am trying to use an nvidia card into virtual machine. My pci card is 
listed with the lspci command on my VM but when i try to launch my X 
windows, xorg said it can't find the device.

I have try latest stable stable and beta drivers of nvidia proprietary.

lspci on node master give :

lspci | grep -i nvi
42:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G98 [GeForce 8400 
GS] (rev a1)

On my kvm vm config file i have this :

cat /etc/pve/qemu-server/2667.conf
bootdisk: ide0
cores: 2
*hostpci0: 42:00.0*
ide0: local:2667/vm-2667-disk-1.raw
ide2: local:iso/CentOS-6.3-x86_64-bin-DVD1.iso,media=cdrom
keyboard: fr
memory: 6500
name: map2667.eu.webraska.com
net0: rtl8139=DE:8A:16:1C:56:AF,bridge=vmbr0
ostype: l26
sockets: 2
vga: std

On the node dmesg, i have this message :

pci-stub 0000:42:00.0: restoring config space at offset 0xf (was 0x100, 
writing 0x10f)

pci-stub 0000:42:00.0: restoring config space at offset 0x4 (was 0x0, 
writing 0xd2000000)

Into the kvm instance i have this :

lspci | grep -i nvi
00:10.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G98 [GeForce 8400 
GS] (rev a1)

And my device configuration into xorg.conf  is :

Section "Device"
     BusId   "0:10:0"
     Identifier     "Device0"
     Driver         "nvidia"
     VendorName     "NVIDIA Corporation"
     Option "IgnoreEDID" "true"
     #Option "ConnectedMonitor" "CRT"
     #Option "NoLogo" "true"
     #Option "UseEDID" "false"
     #Option "ConnectedMonitor" "DFP"
     Option "AllowEmptyInput" "On"
EndSection

And i have this error :
