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.

Description David Jaša 2011-08-04 14:17:37 UTC
Description of problem:
SSIA

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virtio-win-1.0.2-0.52454.el5
Windows 7 x64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to Device manager, unfold Display adapters
2. right-click Update Driver Software...
3. hit "Browse my computer for driver software"
4. enter "a:\" to "Search for driver in this location" input
  
Actual results:
Windows returns "Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it. Driver is not intended for this platform". Windows however *does install x32 driver* that makes display unusable after reboot (in fallback 640x480/8b mode)

Expected results:
Windows installs x64 driver like it does when pointed to "a:\amd64"

Additional info:

Surprisingly, there is no intelligent automatic selection! The user/software have to provide a full path in order to reliably use the proper driver.

Closing although not in my domain.

Comment 6 Marian Krcmarik 2012-01-04 16:25:23 UTC
qspice is not right component for this bug and causes that this bug will be forgotten.

As far as I understand It should go to QXL component and be resolved according to comment #2 and comment #3

Comment 7 David Blechter 2014-02-11 23:23:20 UTC
there are no plans for whql for 3.4, moving to future releases

Comment 11 Sandy Stutsman 2015-08-26 17:13:24 UTC
Confirmed that the win-qxl 64 bit drivers will install qxl-win-0.1-21 build.
