Checked virtual graphics with "lspci -nn" : VirtualBox mounts a "00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: InnoTek Systemberatung GmbH VirtualBox Graphics Adapter [80ee:beef]"
Qemu mounts by default "00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Cirrus Logic GD 5446 [1013:00b8]" but Gnome works better with "00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Device [1234:111]" (parameter -vga std) Both Qemu cases work in all OS (and U-Gnome upto 14.04) but not in U-Gnome 15.04 Is there any new VGA drivers problem with those graphics adapters? PD: Don't know how to use InnoTek VGA in Qemu or others than VB.
