Hello.
After a lot of years of experiments,comparisons,installations and reinstallations,I have been able to passhtru my GeForce RTX 2080 ti to a bhyve virtual machine running with Windows,overcoming/fixing the errors that I've got for years,errors 43 and 12,in a stable and permanent way.
The key was to use the right version of the bhyve executables and of the libraries.
Now,I would like to know how many users have been able to pass their nvidia gpu to a bhyve virtual machine running Windows. This post is not for the users who have an AMD gpu.
I created this post to realize how many users can do that and how many can't and above all,if there is a method to understand inside which FreeBSD branch does my vmm.ko file come from. Just because it is a key file and I've got it from a Reddit user. He told me that he has got it from the latest packages of FreeBSD 14,so I have installed the same version of FreeBSD and I'm using the latest packages,but my (old) vmm.ko file never worked. His version works like a charme.
I really want to know WHERE can I get the same file permanently.
Now,let's give a look at the image below :
the working vmm.ko is called vmm-s.ko" and it is dated 2024 and a reddit user gave it to me. The 2023 version is the file put there by FreeBSD 14.0 p6 with latest packages and it does not allow the nvidia gpu to be passed trhru correctly in a Bhyve / Windows vm.
So now the question is,where I can get the vmm.ko version 2024 ?
