I'd like to point out that this bug is a regression. I previously installed Win 7 using qxl just as Mr Johnston installed W2012R2, and got the generic drivers until I was able to install qxl drivers. Neither qxl nor stdvga work any more, only cirrus, and that only seems to work under Seabios now, whereas it used to function under OVMF, yes even for Windows 7. As I'm using Arch, and haven't reinstalled Windows 7 every day, I can't say when this bug appeared.
