  • I wish there was something nice like that too.

    In the server world that would usually involve doing something like sending the journal data to Elasticsearch using an Elasticsearch integration. But that involves setting up an Elasticsearch server and Kibana and so on which is very unwieldy for a desktop computer. It does work pretty well though in terms of filtering. But it also stores the data internally in indexes to speed up search.

    Of course journald has a seemingly simple C API but writing code is a lot of work. There are probably API bindings for various languages.


  • I also don’t know if there’s any Linux program that will automatically do the configuration for you.

    It seems like it would be pretty complex since I guess you need to disable the linux host from using the GPU, and do PCI passthrough in a VM that has Windows installed.

    And there’s still the problem of the graphics needing to move around the system in order to get to the display instead of the display being directly connected to the GPU.

    Seems like a pretty cool thing that would be neat to have a nice automated GUI solution for.

    I was just looking at, seems like it’s difficult but not impossible https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTWf5D092VY

    I’m in the same boat that it seems too difficult (and I bet the performance still isn’t near native).

    I just dual boot and boot into Windows if I’m going to play a game.
