I was playing my virtual gaming rig last week using a Windows 10 VM with PCI-PASSTHROUGH GTX 1070 on an Ubuntu server via KVM. After planning a release upgrade, I realized I was confused. After hours of frustration, I’m back where I started, except for one issue: /lib/modules is missing. That means no extra modules, including kvm. I managed to create the modules folder and add some kernel updates, but it still only contains the crypto module. How do I reinstall intel_kvm so I can restart my VMs?

Do you have qemu-kvm set up? Are you managing kvm with virt-manager? Was the update cause a reset of grub?

I've executed update-grub several times, qemu-kvm is available, and I control them via CLI using virsh.

The grub config file needs the line intel_iommu=on added. Did you include it? What error appears?

Your GRUB configuration file includes specific settings for the boot process. The line you provided adjusts the default Linux command line to run a custom setup script, enabling silent splash screen and setting IOMMU permissions.

The issue arises because you attempt to launch the VM without properly setting up QEMU-KVM. Fixing this involves reinstalling or reinitializing the QEMU-KVM package.

Attempted to run the command but encountered issues defining the GPU domain. The system reported an error related to missing capabilities for the specified domain type.
