Package: kvm
Version: 60+dfsg-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
kvm by default does not support resolutions wider then 1600.
In order to fix this for me, I applied the following patch, which you probably
don't want use literarely, but at least it allows me to have a working
kvm using the native resolution of my laptop. Not in 32bit, but in 24bit
mode only, but that was the be expected with only 8M of VRAM...
Thanks, Joost Damad
