@hitlerswaifu
You kinda need an extra GPU and a monitor hooked up to it for that though, right?

@alyx not true

You can use single GPU passthrough and pass your main GPU also looking glass exists

I always forget about Looking Glass. Heard the name a bunch, but never looked into it.

@alyx The downside with single GPU is that you can't use both at the same time however you can shutdown and your back at Linux

I'm looking up some tutorials out of curiosity, and.... wtf? A lot of what prevents me from testing this out is always the hackerish things they have you do. Yeah, I'm not gonna do that. I'm not gonna mess around with Grub or my kernal with configurations I have no clue about, nor will I mess around with a GPU bios file that while it seems I'm not flashing, I still don't understand its purpose.

I'm not really scared that I'm not able to do it. My concern is more, will I able to safely undo everything without borking something, if I want to.
