GPU Passthrough from Windows 10 to Ubuntu on VMWare Player
Solution 1:
VMware Workstation 15 does not support GPU pass-through at the moment. The only VMware product that does support it is VMware vSphere.
Even if it was supported, there isn't any way to pass through a GPU that is being used by the OS the hypervisor is running on, or you would lose the display on the parent OS.
vSphere doesn't use the GPU at all, so the entire device can be passed through to the guest VM.
