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)

      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.
