Hi,
This patch series switches the vgabios binaries shipped by qemu from the
lgpl'ed vgabios to the seabios version.
There should be no guest-visible changes (especially no regressions) in
theory. The only known (and intentional) exception is the vesa 2.0
protected mode interface which is not implemented by the seavgabios.
There are no known issues with linux and windows guests. Testing with
other, more exotic guests is very welcome.
Note #1: Just pull from git to test, I've zapped the big binary patches
so you can't 'git am' them.
Note #2: This goes on top of the seabios-1.7.0 pull request just sent,
so pulling this will pull the seabios update too.
please give it a spin,
Gerd
