  • See ch. 9.6 PCI passthrough of the User Manual for the requirements.
  • That's the 2nd GPU card we're talking about, the one not being used by the host.
  • I highly doubt (as in I'm willing to bet the farm) that Android emulators will not see the PCI card. Maybe it's just me, but most of the Android clients are usually smaller than your typical PCI card.
