Linux on one virtual terminal, Windows 10 on another, a different VM on another? The hypervisor would have to load share the nvidia card among the booted VMs to provide graphical services. As the user hotkeys between the VMs, the underlying hardware such as USB or keyboard focus would be switching as well. The hardware is Vt-d capable and compatible for gpu passthrough, but there is on one monitor hooked to the system.<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Is this just a pipedream at this point in time?</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div><div class="m_-4035053628859076041gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><font size="2">Sincerely,<br>Dow<br></font><font size="6"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:sans-serif;line-height:44.8px;background-color:rgb(249,249,249)">⚛</span></font><font size="2">Dow Hurst, Research Scientist<br> 340 Sullivan Science Bldg.</font><div><font size="2"> Dept. of Chem. and Biochem.<br> University of North Carolina at Greensboro<br> PO Box 26170 Greensboro, NC 27402-6170<br></font><br></div></div></div></div>

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you
gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his
own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
