RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 1 Matthew Booth 2011-08-03 14:34:34 UTC 
Fixed upstream. We will now attempt to install the cirrus driver, or warn if that wasn't possible.
Comment 3 Huang Wenlong 2011-08-11 06:19:44 UTC 
verify this bug in  virt-v2v-0.8.2-2 

There will show some Warning message  and try to install cirrus driver 

...
virt-v2v: No capability in config matches os='linux' name='cirrus' distro='rhel' major='5' minor='6'
virt-v2v: WARNING: Display driver was updated to cirrus, but unable to install cirrus driver. X may not function correctly
...
so this bug fixed

What was your command line? The capability should have been found, because it should be in /var/lib/virt-v2v/virt-v2v.db. If it isn't, then this bug isn't fixed.

Hi.Matt

Oh sorry , I understand you , I will retest it in next version  which contain virt-v2v.db ,so I assigned this bug because Fixed in Version should be  "virt-2v-0.8.2-3.el6" I think :)

virt-v2v: rhel5u6-64b-pv-sparse-no-cirrus configured with virtio drivers.

If domain did not register RHN ,this is the intended behaviors. 
If domain is registered ,it will setup cirrus driver by yum.
