I recently set up 2 gaming VMs using libvirt KVM with GPU passthrough on my Ubuntu install so me and my girlfriend can use the same computer to play games when she comes over. I played a couple games of deathmatch and casual on this setup on cs2 and today I discovered I have been banned. This never caused any problems before on cs:go so I figured it’s fine as this isn’t specifically prohibited by valve either as far as I know.
RIP Nvidia users who hate the state of the 535 drivers.
Speaking of, I was getting major stutter inside my VM because I wasnt able to blacklist the NVRM kernel module that’s part of the 535 drivers and it kept trying to probe my graphics cards and failing because they were already captured by the vfio-pci module. I fixed this later by running an
apt purge *nvidia*
but maybe this stutter is what could have flagged my account as well.
