Don’t double post what appears to be the same issue.
You can add a new post to your first post with the new information.

See my response to your other post.

First,
You will always have to post complete details about your virtualization, we aren’t mind readers.

In your case, you only provide information that you’re running vm manager. Libvirt (which provides the basis for vm manager) supports about a dozen different virtualization technologies although on openSUSE you’re more likely to be running KVM, Xen or Docker if you installed using the YAST applet.

Secondly,
There is a very active current thread where another person has posted his references and the degree of success he has had doing what you’re attempting

@mily20001

Thanks for your answers c:
I’m basing mainly on Arch wiki page and this thread.
I’m using qemu with KVM, without any vm manager, and afaik without using libvirt.

Moreover, I don’t see why it would be the same problem than https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/511631-host-doesn-t-support-passtrough-of-host-PCI-devices
here it’s not about PCI…

Hi,
I got this error:

Did you tell libvirt where OVMF files are located?

If you’re using vm manager, that’s one of the applications that is provided by libvirt (Libvirt and vm manager (and virt install) are one and the same.

I’m pretty sure the issue is the same… The referenced thread’s details (KVM with vga passthrough) describe setting up hardware pass through with IOMMU.
