The VESA device driver is known to work with Linux and Windows XP. The VGA memory was increased to 8 MB to enable 1600x1200 with 32 bits per pixel. I updated the built-in VNC server so that it supports higher resolutions too. Note that the Cirrus VGA device driver was not modified, so it has the same limitations are before (4 MB Video Memory, up to 1280x1024). These limitations are unfortunately linked to the emulated Cirrus VGA hardware and guest OS video drivers. Fabrice.
