Some vga & display device background: https://www.kraxel.org/blog/2019/09/display-devices-in-qemu/ virt-manager / virt-install: 1547e16d62736c861a0e4dadeb86ef372d2698bd 2e20b128a1a1f064c5036d3d3d0cf5b09117b9da 8f4c53ea960459516794ba533060a176cc26f121 d9736db9d983d01c03929de226365dbf56a791a3 Actually, two more patches will be needed so those 4 apply properly. Here's the full list master: 534f2e03d077306af4309babd30d92ea3ec4e8c0 651e5b6d753930a2e7536efa4e6d20f57b038e80 1547e16d62736c861a0e4dadeb86ef372d2698bd 2e20b128a1a1f064c5036d3d3d0cf5b09117b9da 8f4c53ea960459516794ba533060a176cc26f121 d9736db9d983d01c03929de226365dbf56a791a3 Hi Pavel,
I noticed that this feather is supported by Fast train.
With packages version:
libvirt-5.9.0-4.module+el8.2.0+4836+a8e32ad7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-4.2.0-1.module+el8.2.0+4793+b09dd2fb.x86_64
virt-manager-2.2.1-3.el8.noarch
virt-install-2.2.1-3.el8.noarch
edk2-ovmf-20190308git89910a39dcfd-6.el8.noarch
1.1 It works on Fast train.
# virt-install --name vm1 --memory 1024 --disk=/var/lib/libvirt/images/rhel7-uefi.qcow2 --import --boot uefi --video bochs
WARNING Changing machine type from 'pc-i440fx-rhel7.6.0' to 'q35' which is required for UEFI secure boot.
=================================================================================
Slow train: "ERROR unsupported configuration: unknown video model 'bochs'"
Package version:
virt-install-2.2.1-3.el8.noarch
virt-manager-2.2.1-3.el8.noarch
libvirt-4.5.0-36.module+el8.2.0+4817+92ef2d83.x86_64
qemu-kvm-2.12.0-92.module+el8.2.0+5014+5115d99d.x86_64
edk2-ovmf-20190308git89910a39dcfd-6.el8.noarch
2.1
# virt-install --name vm1 --memory 1024 --disk=/var/lib/libvirt/images/rhel7-uefi.qcow2 --import --boot uefi --video bochs
WARNING Changing machine type from 'pc-i440fx-rhel7.6.0' to 'q35' which is required for UEFI secure boot.
WARNING No operating system detected, VM performance may suffer. Specify an OS with --os-variant for optimal results.
Starting install...
ERROR unsupported configuration: unknown video model 'bochs'
I also checked by "virsh domcapabilities", there is no "bochs" listed under video device.
# virsh domcapabilities
...
<video supported='yes'>
<enum name='modelType'>
<value>vga</value>
<value>cirrus</value>
<value>qxl</value>
<value>virtio</value>
</enum>
</video>
2.2 But when launch virt-manager UI, "Bochs" is listed under Video device, when I add it to vm, it also reports error:
Error changing VM configuration: unsupported configuration: unknown video model 'bochs'.
So Pavel, please help have a look of my comment, Is it still suitable to test on slow train, thanks.

Not Pavel here, but ... as far as I understand there's no bug asking bochs display support on Slow Train. Or, IOW, just fast train should be supported. Did I answer your question, zhoujunqin? Hi Fabiano Fidêncio, Thanks for your kind reply. Please refer to comment: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1658511#c8 virt-manager which is RHEL only, but bochs display is requested by Fast train, We'd better remove this bug from virt-manager errata, thanks.
