Hello, I tried some time ago to install the qxl driver from testing into Jessie but it hang with green screen on boot.
I tried a few days ago to make a new vm of Stretch and it still has the problem. To make qxl usable I have to disable the offscreen surfaces as in the conf. It speeds up everything to near perfect. For example the main page of wikipedia can't be browsed in iceweasel, it's too slow. There was also more artifacts in the Stretch vm. Seem fixed by disabling offscreen surfaces. I add that .conf to all my VMs manually now. ---- On Mon, 16 Nov 2015 10:50:55 -0500 Laurent Bigonville wrote ---- >On Mon, 05 Oct 2015 22:58:26 -0400 Pat Roberts ><royalsheeplaunc...@zoho.com> wrote: > > > Dear Maintainer, > >Hi, > > > When QXL video is selected in a virt-manager Debian Jessie or Wheezy >guest, the > > performance of a whole class of applications is so bad it renders the >driver > > unusable, up to appearing locked up. > >Could you please try to use the version from testing/unstable (0.1.4)? > >Cheers, > >Laurent Bigonville >
