Seems there is a bug in Cirrus Video Card about screen resize. However there is no bug on this qemu emulation with kvm. So is there any way to patch qemu-dm video card emulator with current qemu version? or what is the latest version of qemu used to dev qemu-dm? I red a doc from 2007 which said that qemu-dm is based on qemu 8. is it still true? if not what is the base version of qemu used in qemu-dm for xen 3.3 and xen 3.4 ? regards, mats petersson a =E9crit : > A while (> 2 years ago), I'm sure I ran up Windows NT on Xen 3.0 or > 3.1.
