RE: [Xen-devel] HVM stdvga=1 problem

Hi David,

I fixed it for IA64 side last week.  VTi uses stdvga @early boot time, so also met the problem. Seems IA32 side needs this fix too.  Maybe you can try the following patch.

Subject: [Xen-devel] HVM stdvga=1 problem

 

Hello,

I'm trying to run a HVM with the stdvga=1 option and qemu crashes... I'm using the Xen 3.0.3 installation which comes with FC6.

After a bit of research :) I saw that it crashes in the function vram_dirty..... Any ideas on how to solve this?
I want to run windows with the vga.sys driver...

Thank you,
David.
