Basically the title. I’ve only ever seen huge 20 page guides on how to make it work. Is there an easy way?
Specifically on Debian or Arch with a laptop with two gpus (zephyrus g14)

@Ptsf @shapis I’ve primarily gamed from a virtual machine and have NEVER EVER been banned, so I don’t think so.
Depends on the game. Apex, Riot, ubisoft, and EA all ban vm players. A list of other companies do as well. Here’s BattleEye’s statement on it for example: https://x.com/i/web/status/1289027672186720263
@Ptsf Haven’t played any of those. Anyway, there is a way to edit your xml to fake the machine id.
machine id isn’t necessarily the important part. anticheat and vm detection check a lot of different heuristics incl hard to defend against things like timing attacks on particular cpu instructions. there’s a handful of open source versions if you’re curious
@brian To be honest, until and unless it becomes a problem for me, not really. KVM has the host CPU executing the VM instructions so timing on CPU instructions should product identical results. I have the VM setup as CPU and GPU pass through.
even with cpu passthrough some things are still emulated. you can run a vm detector and see for yourself what tests fail.
it may not affect your games but others should still be careful since it is a real issue, and people do get banned for it.
@brian Ok, just for kicks tell me where I can get this.
I’ve never used it but this one seems like the most complete currently, and it’ll tell you which tests fail.
@brian I have used it and with flyff at least the performance was far insuperior to kvm/qemu.
