Reopening bug; this fix needs redone now that we're no longer using dexconf to generate default xorg.conf's.

[Bug 338219] Re: x not starting in kvm with std vga
After diving deeply into X manainer scripts and other stuff, I found the problem. The livecd uses /usr/bin/dexconf to generate xorg.conf. If you look at line 191, you'll see QEMU_KVM=$(grep QEMU Virtual CPU /proc/cpuinfo || true) if [ -n $QEMU_KVM ]; then DEVICE_DRIVER=cirrus fi So the script blindly uses the cirrus driver if it is started under qemu/kvm. I think it is not so difficult to fix it, and will post a patch if I can write one. -- x not starting in kvm with std vga https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/338219 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Ok, here's my patch. It is as simple as possible, and may not be the best possible solution. ** Attachment added: dexconf patch http://launchpadlibrarian.net/24412615/dexconf.patch -- x not starting in kvm with std vga https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/338219 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 338219] Re: x not starting in kvm with std vga
Today I tried qemu 0.10.1 (which has kvm support), as the changelog reported kvm vga: fix screen corruption with Ubuntu installations (Glauber Costa). However, it has exactly the same problems as kvm userspace. I tried running lspci and the result is the same as in my previous post. -- x not starting in kvm with std vga https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/338219 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Ups, sorry for that. Here is the result of lspci -vvnn. Also, when kvm is started this way, usplash doesn't work. May it be related to this bug?

probably an incorrect pci id. You need to attach lspci -vvnn output for these kinds of bugs. Make sure you read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Reporting to learn how to report X bugs properly.
