Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
In OVMF setup I am trying to change the display resolution to 1024x768.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?
I tested two different cases
A)
cp -r /usr/share/qemu-efi-aarch64 ./
qemu-system-aarch64 -M virt -cpu max -device ramfb -device qemu-xhci -device
usb-kbd \
-bios qemu-efi-aarch64/QEMU_EFI.fd
B)
cp -r /usr/share/AAVMF ./
qemu-system-aarch64 -M virt -cpu max -device ramfb -device qemu-xhci -device
usb-kbd \
-drive file=AAVMF/AAVMF_CODE.fd,format=raw,if=pflash,index=0,read-
only=on \
-drive file=AAVMF/AAVMF_VARS.fd,format=raw,if=pflash,index=1,read-
only=off
After starting in both cases the following steps led to the situation:
* Enter OVMF Setup with ESC
* Navigate Device Manager -> OVMF Platform Configuration
* Change Preferred Resolution to 1024x768
* Save with F10 and Y
The configuration was not saved. The following message was shown:
"Submit Fail For Form: OVMF Settings"
This issue seems to be similar to
https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=4606
* What was the outcome of this action?
It was not possible to change the preferred resolution with the installed
firmware.
Changing the preferred resolution with an ovmf firmware from external sources
worked.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Changing the preferred resolution with qemu-efi-aarch64 firmware works
