Description of problem:
It reported failures regarding the Video test (AST2400) on 3.10.0-327.el7.ppc64le on rhcert version 2.8 and 2.9.


PS: Onboard ASPEED AST2400 graphic controller cannot be bring up into GUI mode(runlevel 5) on SUT on RHEL 7.2 GA

Does the video test item MUST implement under the GUI mode, this cert SUT supports TEXT mode on 3.10.0-327.el7.ppc64le only ??

Upgrade below packages and SUT works under GUI mode successfully on 3.10.0-327.el7.ppc64le but got the failed result regarding "Video test item" still w/ same symptom (glxgears -display :2 Error: couldn't open display :2)

Please refer attached log"video_output_fail_xorg_updated.log" for details.

I experience a similar behaviour on Intel x86_64 architecture if the SUT is a machine with 2 physical CPU sockets. I filed a bug with a description for a bizarre workaround here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1391841
