Description Adam Jackson 2013-03-28 16:48:33 UTC
Create an F18 guest in virt-manager.  Try to change the GPU to, say, vga, and get this traceback:

Error changing VM configuration: XML error: ram attribute only supported for type of qxl

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/details.py", line 2463, in _change_config_helper

    if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virDomainDefineXML() failed', conn=self)
libvirtError: XML error: ram attribute only supported for type of qxl

The amusing thing is that the VRAM isn't even an editable attribute in the GUI, even for qxl.

Comment 1 Cole Robinson 2013-03-28 17:15:51 UTC
virt-manager isn't clearling the new @ram attribute from the qxl block when we change to vga.

Comment 2 Jens Petersen 2013-05-15 07:50:05 UTC
I just ran into this too - kind of serious since qxl kernel console
appears to be garbage for f19 guest.
