But the kernel one is in the linux-modules- extra-<version>-generic package, which is not installed by default in vms. That breaks some assumptions: uvtool, for example, doesn't specify a video device when creating a vm, and the default in libvirt in such cases is to use cirrus. As a conseguence, disco VMs created by tools that do not specify a default video device won't have the cirrus.ko module, and X won't start there. It's a bit more complicated, however, because X just tries other fallbacks, but they also don't work. In particular, vesa doesn't work: [ 25.547] (EE) VESA(0): Specified fbbpp (24) is not a permitted value (full log at http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/d6ypgxzkyv/) We can change uvtool and specify a video device instead of leaving it blank (see bug #1818877), but there might be other tools out there spawning guests without telling them which video device to use, and they would also fail.
