I have the same problem too. Anything other than each guest pixel mapping to exactly one host pixel looks bad. There should be a way to ensure that this is always the case (in fact, perhaps it should be the default and there should be a command line switch to allow the possibility of the display being scaled).
VirtualBox gets this right. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/504368 Title: sdl window intermittently scales instead of resizing Status in QEMU: Triaged Status in “qemu-kvm” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: qemu-kvm Normally, the SDL output window for a VM resizes to match the VM's resolution. However, intermittently the output is instead scaled within the window. I can't seem to find any pattern to when the output is scaled versus when the window is resized. I would prefer that the window be resized as needed to display the VM in a 1:1 manner.
