Comments on: Binding a GPU to vfio-pci in Debian Buster /gpu-debian/ Your baremetal source for virtual news Wed, 20 May 2020 11:30:12 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.2.2 By: Captain /gpu-debian/#comment-110 Wed, 20 May 2020 11:30:12 +0000 /?p=373#comment-110 Hey this is a good tutorial, but I think it would be a little better if you made a “softdep” for nouveau, so that it depends on vfio-pci. That way, you force nouveau to load after vfio-pci.

I only bring this up because I’ve gone through a couple of tutorials and ran into a problem where nouveau was loading up before vfio-pci, and making it so vfio-pci couldn’t bind to my card.

Maybe this will help your readers who get bit by the random nature of this bug.
