After diving deeply into X manainer scripts and other stuff, I found the
problem. The livecd uses /usr/bin/dexconf to generate xorg.conf. If you
look at line 191, you'll see
QEMU_KVM=$(grep "QEMU Virtual CPU" /proc/cpuinfo || true)
if [ -n "$QEMU_KVM" ]; then
DEVICE_DRIVER="cirrus"
fi
So the script blindly uses the cirrus driver if it is started under
qemu/kvm. I think it is not so difficult to fix it, and will post a
patch if I can write one.
