The thread is talking about option ROM, which offer extra function on some PCI card, but not video BIOS which is basic component for the graphics card... Currently we are using emulated Cirrus 54xx by default, as well as it's video BIOS. Device assignment's video BIOS support would still miss in a period... We would say explicit that we have supported graphics card after we enable it. :) -- regards Yang, Sheng -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
