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 8 Dax Kelson 2014-07-14 05:15:02 UTC 
vmware-svga provides low resource yet high resolutions (> 1024x768) displays without any xorg.conf on R6 guest machines. This is a regression from RHEL6. Please re-enable it.

Response to comment 8:

While Red Hat welcomes bug reports on Red Hat products here in our
public bugzilla database, please keep in mind that bugzilla is not
a support tool or means of accessing support.  If you would like
technical support please visit our support portal at
access.redhat.com or call us for information on subscription
offerings to suit your needs.

Thank you.
Comment 10 Dax Kelson 2014-09-22 17:08:32 UTC 
Here is another reason why you should re-enable vmware-svga.
