USB keyboard and mouse not working on clover menu #550

Closed Bvoxl closed 2 years ago

Bvoxl commented 2 years ago

After successfully creating the vm, I passed through my spare amd graphics card, as well as my usb mouse and keyboard to the vm through virt-manager. I get a gpu output, however my keyboard and mouse don't function. I have ensured the vm is using usb 2.0 controller. But I am not able to select anything in the clover boot menu. And ideas?

@Bvoxl The mouse will never work on that menu. You could just wait until it auto-boots the drive. Try removing your AMD GPU and see if that fixes the problem. If that doesn't work, remove and add the usb keyboard to virt-manager

@notAperson535 am I required to do anything further than the normal installation, and attachment of the gpu for the display to work? It is just an amd gpu on Catalina. No third-party kexts?

@Bvoxl I don't think you have to do anything else besides passing through, except maybe install graphics drivers in macOS if needed.
