Hi Cèdric, i had been build the kernel with the Xics option enabled and all work on G5 970MP on Mate 17.04
i will test the same kernel of Fedora server PPC64 and see if there will work too. but it is strange thing, because the option was not needed (by the kernel default) on PowerMacs and was not need to be enabled on Qemu 2.8. I suggest to add this in the user faq PowerPC. I will test it on Qoriq too if kernel build with this option enabled and if all work ok there too in case i will report as usual. I will warn all the PowerPc comunity about if the qemu devs will need to have Xics turned on as default in the kernel Thanks for your support Luigi ________________________________ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1674925 Title: Qemu PPC64 kvm no display if --device virtio-gpu-pci is selected Status in QEMU: New Bug description: Hi, i did many tests on qemu 2.8 on my BE machines and i found an issue that i think was need to be reported Test Machines BE 970MP if i setup qemu with qemu-system-ppc64 -M 1024 --display sdl(or gtk),gl=on --device virtio- gpu-pci,virgl --enable-kvm and so and so result is doubled window one is vga other is virtio-gpu-pci without any start of the VM . pratically i dont have any output of openbios and on the virtual serial output the same issue i found is if i select: qemu-system-ppc64 -M 1024 --display gtk(or sdl) --device virtio-gpu-pci --enable-kvm and so and so i had been try to change all the -M types of all kind of pseries without any positive result.
