Created attachment 328834 [details] X server log from the guest Description of problem: I created a Rawhide virtual machine on a Fedora 10 host (both x86-64). I cannot get a display resolution of higher than 800x600 in the guest. Xorg.0.log shows complaints about both bad modes and insufficient memory for modes. (I allocated 1 GB of RAM to the guest, but I have no idea how video memory is allocated.) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.5.99.3-9.fc11.x86_^4 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start up my Rawhide guest Actual results: The display is 800x600, with higher resolutions marked unusable. Expected results: I would like to get something a little higher, maybe 1024x768. Additional info:
Currently we just emulate curris chip which is not able to do anything better. Adam Jackson advised me at least on workaround: [00:31:07] ajax: only workaround for now is to run kvm with -std-vga and configure vesa for whatever resolution you want by hand. Otherwise, this is NOTABUG. We will emulate some better chip eventually.
