-std-vga causes crash

[mrintegrity <mrintegrity-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>]

When starting kvm with the -std-vga option I get the following crash and
terminal output:

root@lina-desktop:~# kvm -hda /home/variant/XPtest.img -m 450 -soundhw
sb16 -localtime -usb -usbdevice tablet -std-vga -snapshot
kvm: get_dirty_pages returned -2

I have Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU with vmx and the kvm and kvm-intel modules
are loaded. The guest image has been created with qemu and has been used
with qemu with those same options for a few weeks already, the only
change I made was to start with kvm instead of qemu.

I noticed a patch on the mailing list archive for the to avoid exiting
with the dirty pages warning but is that the cause of my issue? I didn't
see much discussion about it.

Any tips?

Thanks,

Alan
