@MNLipp, Hm, so to clarify: for you there is a problem when both the host and the guest are 12.04 (for me this did work and I only saw the crash when the host was running Natty (11.04)). Do you get to the lightdm login or does your crash happen sooner? Since for Mirto and my testing it was possible to pause at the login screen, it is possible to "sudo strace -s160 -p <pid of qemu-kvm> -f -o strace.txt" to catch the kvm crash.
It seems to be all about virtual resolution. Mirto said 800x600 is ok... So would that mean that you can bring up the guest with the cirrus card and set the resolution to that, you can boot with vmvga? It would be interesting to know whether this always works. And then which resolutions are offered running with vmvga to change into? Are all higher resolutions problematic or just certain? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/987715 Title: In KVM In a virtual machine, system crashes if vmvga video card is used To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/987715/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
