I don't know much about what cirrusvga is, or how it improves qemu's graphics support, I just read some how-to's for qemu and it said to use that flag, so I did. Basically the main thing I know about gfx support is that it should be way faster to support native cards (I've got a GeForce 4 MX 64MB DDR in my 1 Ghz iMac, for instance) instead of emulating a card. That's why I was curious if qemu will do this, as VPC7 will supposedly do. I'm not trying to rush the qemu devs or anything, I have no idea how long things like that would take to implement. Fred Hope
