## Description
This tool enables the use of Geforce and Quadro GPUs with the NVIDIA vGPU
software. NVIDIA vGPU normally only supports a few datacenter Tesla and
professional Quadro GPUs by design, but not consumer graphics cards through a
software limitation. This vgpu_unlock tool aims to remove this limitation, thus
enabling most Maxwell, Pascal, Volta (untested), and Turing based GPUs to use
the vGPU technology. Ampere support is currently a work in progress.
