Hi, > Where "the latter" refers to "IIRC the question was [whether] we'll > leave it as-is (console=<index>), or [whether] we'll do something like > display=<id>,head=<nr> instead." Oh joy, third addressing scheme.
No, that isn't a third, that is what the command line actually uses, and '<id>' is the qdev id of the display device (i.e. vga). 'head=<nr>' is not needed in most cases, only in case a display device supports multiple scanouts (aka monitors) and the guest is configured to actually use that. And even then only for tablet devices (aka absolute pointer coordinates). I'll go give this a try ... cheers, Gerd
