[PATCH 0/3] Add xf86-video-fbdev and xf86-video-cirrus to qemux86 and qemux86-64

[Max Eliaser]

Hello list,

This series adds additional x.org drivers to the qemux86 and qemux86-64
machines. Now, instead of just including the "vmware" driver, GUI images for
these machines will also include "cirrus" and "fbdev" drivers. Rationale: now
that the runqemu script allows users to select which VGA adapter they want
qemu to emulate, the qemu images should be able to start X servers with any
adapter without requiring a rebuild of the image.

Note that the drivers have only been added to the qemux86 and qemux86-64
machines. If someone is interested in trying them on the other qemu machines,
they shouldn't be hard to add.

xf86-video-cirrus did not previously have a recipe, so a new one is also added
as part of this series.

Regards,
-Max Eliaser

There is no such variable as DEPENDS_${PN} so that line does nothing.

[PATCH 2/3] qemux86: support X11 when QEMU is emulating a different GPU than vmware

[Max Eliaser]

QEMU is capable of emulating four different VGA adapters: cirrus, std, vmware,
and QXL. By adding the cirrus and fbdev X.Org drivers to the qemux86 image,
the image can be made to launch an X server on when cirrus and std are chosen,
in addition to just vmware. (The build of QEMU in OE-Core appears to have QXL
disabled, meaning a driver for it is unnecessary.)

The runqemu script now allows the choice of emulated VGA adapter to be
specified manually, so it's important that qemux86 supports any configuration
the user might choose without requiring the image to be rebuilt.

In addition to adding the two extra drivers to the qemux86 image, a section
specifying the driver to use is deleted from the image's xorg.conf, allowing
the X server to automatically select the most appropriate driver. Testing
shows that it does always pick the correct one.

[PATCH 3/3] qemux86-64: support X11 when QEMU is emulating a different GPU than vmware

[Max Eliaser]

QEMU is capable of emulating four different VGA adapters: cirrus, std, vmware,
and QXL. By adding the cirrus and fbdev X.Org drivers to the qemux86-64 image,
the image can be made to launch an X server on when cirrus and std are chosen,

The runqemu script now allows the choice of emulated VGA adapter to be

From looking at the configure.ac you don't need this, but you are
missing a dependency on libpciaccess.
