from the qemu doc, |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
3.11.1 Linux |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
To have access to SVGA graphic modes under X11, use the vesa or the |
| 31 |
cirrus X11 driver. For optimal performances, use 16 bit color depth in |
| 32 |
the guest and the host OS. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
When using a 2.6 guest Linux kernel, you should add the option clock=pit |
| 35 |
on the kernel command line because the 2.6 Linux kernels make very |
| 36 |
strict real time clock checks by default that QEMU cannot simulate exactly. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
When using a 2.6 guest Linux kernel, verify that the 4G/4G patch is not |
| 39 |
activated because QEMU is slower with this patch. The QEMU Accelerator |
| 40 |
Module is also much slower in this case. Earlier Fedora Core 3 Linux |
| 41 |
kernel (< 2.6.9-1.724_FC3) were known to incorporte this patch by |
| 42 |
default. Newer kernels don't have it. |
| 43 |

|
| 45 |
Like another poster said try setting resoltions in the xorg file. |
