Title: [19.04 FEAT] Enable graphical distro installer to run natively with virtio-gpu Status in Ubuntu on IBM z Systems: Fix Released Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Installer update request for completing [19.04 FEAT| Enable virtio-gpu for s390x https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1799467 Addl description: The graphical installers either require VNC to be set up on s390x to run or are not supported at all. With virtio-gpu support the installers can start an X Windows server locally as they would on an x86 system. The distributor most likely only needs to disable s390x specific handling in the installer (like starting a VNC server) and just launch the graphical UI used for installation if a virtio-gpu device is present. Business Value: Allows to install s390x KVM guests without any extra setup activities, providing the same user experience as on other platforms.
