Subject: [PATCH 04/10] qemux86: drop resolution setting via uvesafb
Date: Sun, 16 Feb 2020 16:50:08 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200216155015.21738-4-alex.kanavin@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200216155015.21738-1-alex.kanavin@gmail.com>

I am not sure if this has ever worked, but uvesafb is a really
outdated (VBE from the 1990s), awkward (needs v86d) and limited
(no support for high resolutions) way to do it.

The specific reason 640x480-32 was introduced (ages ago) was
to force 32 bit mode with vmware driver, as 16bit had rendering issues.

The modern, supported option is video=... kernel parameter documented here:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/kernel_mode_setting#Forcing_modes_and_EDID
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/fb/modedb.rst
which can be passed directly to runqemu and doesn't require special
kernel modules.

Sato under X will continue to use 640x480 as that is hardcoded into
xorg.conf under qemu.
