Looks like it is writing 32 bit data into a 24 bit framebuffer.
I guess desktop effects uses software emulation OpenGL.
I'd suggest first checking if software OpenGL supports 24 bit
framebuffer, otherwise it can't work.
Next I'd check which format/bit depth the X server is trying to use.
Last you could try debugging the SDL stuff to see which format it
actually uses.
Last, you can try to hack sdl.c to force it to use a different
bit depth (note I don't know how well that works with cirrus or if
this actually works at all) by changing sdl_create_displaysurface,
probably line 183.
That's all I can think of (I'm new to qemu, so I probably lack some
details).
