Description of problem: virt-manager allows the selection of qxl for the video adapter, but selecting it results in a backtrace and the error message "internal error unknown video model 'qxl'" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): virt-manager-0.8.7-2.fc14.noarch How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Take an existing Fedora 15 VM set up with vmvga and VNC 2. Change the video adapter to qxl 3. Click on the "Apply" button. Actual results: A backtrace and the error message noted above. Expected results: qxl should not be a displayed option if it is not supported. Otherwise selecting qxl should result in qxl being successfully selected.

The version of qemu in f14 doesn't support QXL. We should probably hide the option in virt-manager UI in that case
Fedora 14 is end of life now, so closing this bug.
