> "-vga virtio -display sdl" crashes my whole wayland/sway session (=>
needs further investigation)

Re-executing this in a stock GNOME Shell environment, it also works as
expected and is able to change resolution just fine.

$ qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -m 2G -nic user,model=virtio-net-pci
-vga virtio -display sdl -cdrom xubuntu-25.10-desktop-amd64.iso


I'm really unclear what could be the culprit here. I have a suspicion that it 
might not be related to the graphics stack, but rather the input stack (e.g. 
input0: usb-tablet), because of the observation that Heinrich made in comment 
#6 (and I confirmed in #11): The screen resolution changes, but the 
mouse-pointer has a certain offset in x+y directions, so we cannot click any 
buttons and the screen can make the impression of being frozen.

We need a better reproducer in order to narrow this down. It must be
some setting (commandline argument) that libvirt adds by default, but is
not there in a basic run of "qemu-system-x86_64". We need to find which
one is triggering the issue.

Any help would be appreciated!
