Using ... interesting question. I always assumed that virt-manager starts a viewer, but I cannot find one in my process list. So: using virt-manager. My Arch system has "xf86-video-qxl" installed and loads the "qxl" kernel module automatically when the guest configuration is set to using QXL. It does not automatically load "bochs_drm" as mentioned here (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/QEMU#qxl). However, adding it "manually" doesn't make any difference. I know about Windows. I'm using these guests with QXL and the windows drivers installed (AFAIK there are no virtio-vga drivers for Windows). Contrary to Arch, Windows+QXL works satisfactory. - Michael > >> - Michael >> >>> Thanks, >>> michal >>> >>>> _______________________________________________ >>>> Users mailing list -- [email protected] >>>> To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] >>>> Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/privacy-policy.html >>>> oVirt Code of Conduct: >>>> https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ >>>> List Archives: >>>> https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/[email protected]/message/IZQHW3NZB4BFGMP4LMJE2VTJ6H2OSWSB/ >> _______________________________________________ Users mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/privacy-policy.html oVirt Code of Conduct: https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ List Archives: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/[email protected]/message/ZIX7QDZERFY7IYO5J6DUAJ7Y6K3QBSOF/
