Hello, I'm trying to follow a million and one guides online so that I can enable GPU passthrough and get a virtual machine running for windows so I can just open that window to game. Right now I'm experiencing two issues, virtual machine manager is complaining about libguestfs, and the guest machine runs really slowly, while only outputting as a window on my host machine, but only displaying a weird firmware thing on the gpu output. Ill answer the questions below, and then paste the output from libguestfs-test-tool at the end.

Thanks!

What are you trying to do?

    Run a virtual machine of windows on Manjaro

What exact command(s) did you run?

    I installed using the gui package manager(pamac) on manjaro, I'm just opening the virtual machine manager to see the error.

What was the precise error or output of these commands?

Enable debugging, run the commands again, and capture the complete output, do not edit the output.

    Basically got no output if that's all I was supposed to run

[james@jamesbuild1 ~]$ export LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1
[james@jamesbuild1 ~]$ export LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1
[james@jamesbuild1 ~]$ export LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1 LIBGUESTFS_TRACE=1
[james@jamesbuild1 ~]$ export LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1 LIBGUESTFS_TRACE=1
[james@jamesbuild1 ~]$

Include the version of libguestfs, the operating system version, and how you installed libguestfs (eg. from source, yum install, etc.)

    libguestfs 1.42.0-4 on Manjaro  5.10.0-1
