I have been trying to get vGPU to work on Proxmox (Debian / Ubuntu) for over a week. I feel like I am close, but keep hitting walls.
Card is an RTX 6000 ada
I got my 90 day trial, and downloaded the Linux KVM software version 17.4
I ran NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-550.127.06-vgpu-kvm.run and the driver installed.
nvidia-smi works
nvidia-smi vgpu reports:

lspci shows 33 NVIDIA CPUs.
I have used the displaymodeselector tool to change the GPU to display-disabled.
From here, I am not exactly sure what’s next. Adding vGPUs to VMs doesn’t work. I have found several methods online to see what mediated types are available, and all of them show none available. ex:
ls /sys/class/mdev_bus/0000:3b:03.2/mdev_supported_types/
the mdev_supported_types/ is empty.
I also find that I should use the NVIDIA vGPU manager to create the vGPUs and types. But, it didn’t install with the installer, and I can’t seem to find it anywhere. The downloads section in the portal only has it for vSphere. The documentation mentions a .deb file is available, but where?
If the vGPU manager is the next step, how do I get it for Ubuntu/Debian ? I tried to contact support, but the support link from the licensing portal is broken and just returns me back to the portal.
