Is it possible to enable GPU acceleration on virtual machine, using Windows 10 Pro as host and Ubuntu 20.04 as virtual machine? I have tried Hyper-V and it didn't worked, propably because it is only for Windows Server 16. Unfortunately, I can't make a dualbot installation.
Does anyone have any proven way to use GPU and Linux, having only windows installed?
The host is windows(xp and win7). The guest is a Android which build with x86 ABI by myselves.
I know if QEMU work with intel HAXM like google official emulator, it can support VT-x. But the big problem is HAXM NOT support AMD. And KVM support VT-x/AMD-v, but KVM can't use on Windows. So are there any other ways to let windows QEMU support VT-x/AMD-v like VirtualBox and VMware?
ps. In abstractive, for QEMU supporting CPU hardware virtualization, the function role of HAXM is just like KVM, is my understanding right?
On linux, KVM can support VT-x/AMD-v.
But on windows, I don't know.
I am tryin to install kali linux 1.0.9 on virtualbox for some testing purposes. (I am new with virtual machines). So i downloaded the 64-bit version of the os. i have got two problems:-
for some reason virtualbox does not show me a debian 64 bit version option in the settings(however it does show 32-bit option).
virtualbox doesnt allow me to change the no. of processors(default value is 1). i have got 8 cpus.
please help. my specs - intel i7 2670 memory- 6GB HDD-700 GB graphics - radeon 7670 HD
I have got windows 7 ultimate 64-Bit installed on the host
You need to enable 'Virtualization' option in your BIOS settings. The name of the settings may be different in different BIOS/motherboard brands. But you can easily identify it, in the BIOS.
I also had the same problem. I am in windows 8.1 and for my case, the problem was due to conflicts with Hyper-V who was activated in my system. I solved the problem by disabling Hyper-V.
Open windows features and Uncheck Hyper-V, click/tap on OK
I'm trying to get my Android Emulator running faster,
but i can't enable virtualization. When i open
bios, it saids that it is enabled, but when i run Intel Processor Identification Utility, it display "Supporting advanced intel processor technologies: Intel(R) Virtualization Technology: no" . But when i look at the page about my processor on intels page, it saids that my processor supports virtualization
About my machine:
Dell Studio 1749
4 GB Ram
Intel Core i5-450M CPU (specifications)
Windows 8 64bit
Thank you all!
I found the solution!
In Windows 8 i need to disable Hyper-V.. I don't know why.
Hyper-V uses the VT resources and if they are already being used by another process then they will not be available for HAXM to use.
This programming guide implies that this is possible, so I figure what the heck.
Right now, though, it doesn't work.
Host OS is Vista 64-bit, VMWare Workstation 6.5.3 is running Windows 7 Enterprise 32-bit.
Installed Software on the VM:
Visual C# 2010 Express
Microsoft Server Speech Platform Runtime
Microsoft Server Speech Recognition Language - Kinect
Microsoft Speech Platform SDK
Kinect for Windows SDK Beta
I plug in the Kinect, the device is recognized by the VM, then I run the Sample Shape Game and it doesn't recognize the device. It says "Plug in the Kinect and try again" which turns out to be error 0x80080014, which leads to
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/kinectsdknuiapi/thread/4da8c75e-9aad-4dc3-bd83-d77ab4cd2f82/
which gives me two things to look at:
is it plugged in with the special cable? yes
are all 4 entries in the Device Manager? no
In the Device Manager, I see a "Microsoft Kinect" group containing Microsoft Kinect Audio Control, Microsoft Kinect Camera and Microsoft Kinect Device, but there is nothing under "Sound, video and game controllers" other than VMware VMaudio. "Kinect USB Audio" should be there.
I'm guessing that there is some further twiddling I have to do with the VMWare USB / hardware options (whatever that tray with the USB / CD / HD / floppy etc icons is called) or some deft combination of rebooting and (un)plugging, but I'm almost out of enthusiasm.
Any ideas? TIA
EDIT: I realized that I had some lingering drivers on my host (Vista) system from OpenKinect. After removing them, I can no longer see the Kinect at all in the VM. Hmm.
There is this on read.me
Virtual machines: You must run applications built with the Kinect for Windows SDK Beta in a native Windows environment. Kinect for Windows applications cannot run in a virtual machine, because the Microsoft Kinect drivers and this SDK Beta must be installed on the computer where the application is running.
just to share that (not really understood how) VM Workstation 8 running in a host win 7 x64 with guest OS Ubuntu 10.04 sucessfully detected and installed Kinect drivers.
I was able to test it with libfreenect (OpenKinect Project) http://openkinect.org/wiki/Getting_Started#Manual_Build_on_Linux
best regards,
I'm late to the party, but we've been running and developing for the Kinect with Windows 7 running under VMWare under Mac OS X Mountain Lion.
I'm not a Computer Scientist, but I thought Turing showed that a universal Touring Machine was basically the same as physical hardware. I've had Distributed COM+ running on 3 or 4 VM's on the same physical hardware, but somehow the Kinect device is different? I don't buy that at all.
The most recent version of Microsoft Kinect for Windows (v1.6, possibly slightly earlier versions) in combination with the "Kinect for Windows" hardware does work inside a virtual machine. I run this setup on a MacBook Pro, Parallels 7 and Windows 7.
Note that a Kinect for Xbox does not work inside a virtual machine.
This page from Microsoft says that the "Kinect for Windows" device should work in a VM, but that the "Kinect for XBOX" does NOT work.
First of all you just need two Things to be installed:
libfreenect
libusb
after that you should set three flags to 0x02 at the line
typedef enum {FREENECT_DEVICE_MOTOR = 0x02,FREENECT_DEVICE_CAMERA = 0x02,FREENECT_DEVICE_AUDIO = 0x02,} freenect_device_flags;
Inside the headerfile located at /usr/local/include/libfreenect libfreenect.h but you will lose the ability to control the movement and the the microphone usage will be disabled so don't even try to access them or your device might get damaged after that you should also set
#define PKTS_PER_XFER 32
#define NUM_XFERS 6
inside your libfreenect/src/usb_libusb10.h file at the linux Line
After that rebuild your libfreenect by
mkdir build
cd build cmake ..
make make install.
Than Restart your virtual System and plug and connect only the Kinect Camera Device and no other Kinect device during start of the VM. When System is up you could test your device is properly working by switching to your previously created libfreenect build directory and go to bin there you run ./freenect-camtest you should get no or only a small number of package losses if a lot of losses occur try restart your vm with the camera device pluged in and already connected to your vm. You might need to active disconnect and connect the Webcam from the VM during startup to receive images this should be done during first seconds of VM Boottime!
Works with Ubuntu 14.04 and Workstation 10 and 11 and 11.1
HOST OS Windows 7 and Kinect SDK installed and Kinectdevice for Windows
Also it seems to be quite unstable you often have to restart your virtual system if you can't receive images from your Kinect. But if you once received images don't unplug device or you won't get data until you reboot virtual system with Kinect Camera connected to it.
=> This actually solved the problem otherwise to much frames get lost and its not possible to display proper image!
