This is by design, to provide high security, which is the point of Qubes. It's planned to allow GPU for chosen, trusted VMs: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/8552

Alternatively, you could perform a GPU passthrough, https://www.qubes-os.org/faq/#can-i-run-applications-like-ga...

Your link concerning GPU pass through only links to a google groups discussion with last activity in 2020 and 2015. So.. I guess this is not possible nor recommended?

I've been using vms with passed through gpu for a while and it's great but I would love to switch to qubes. I wish this was prioritized.

Thank you! That looks more promising.
