File add-qxl-support.patch of Package xen.950
Usage: vga="qxl" Qxl vga support many resolutions that not supported by stdvga, mainly the 16:9 ones and other high up to 2560x1600. With QXL you can get improved performance and smooth video also with high resolutions and high quality. Require their drivers installed in the domU and spice used otherwise act as a simple stdvga.

I tested some resolution not supported by stdvga (1366x768, 1600x900 and 1920x1080) with 32 bit color and all works good equal to kvm. For now not works on linux domUs when xorg have 100% cpu and black screen with qxl driver installed. Seems needed other changes/fixes on xen and/or xorg/qxl driver side before have it full working with linux domUs. --- docs/man/xl.cfg.pod.5 | 10 +++++++++- tools/libxl/libxl_create.c | 13 +++++++++++++ tools/libxl/libxl_dm.c | 8 ++++++++ tools/libxl/libxl_types.idl | 1 + tools/libxl/xl_cmdimpl.c | 2 ++ 5 files changed, 33 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) Index: xen-4.4.2-testing/docs/man/xl.cfg.pod.5 =================================================================== --- xen-4.4.2-testing.orig/docs/man/xl.cfg.pod.5 +++ xen-4.4.2-testing/docs/man/xl.cfg.pod.5 @@ -1084,6 +1084,9 @@ qemu-xen-traditional device-model, the a which is sufficient for 1024x768 at 32 bpp. For the upstream qemu-xen device-model, the default and minimum is 8 MB. +For B<qxl> vga, the default is both default and minimal 128MB. +If B<videoram> is set less than 128MB, an error will be triggered. + =item B<stdvga=BOOLEAN> Select a standard VGA card with VBE (VESA BIOS Extensions) as the @@ -1095,9 +1098,14 @@ This option is deprecated, use vga="stdv =item B<vga="STRING"> -Selects the emulated video card (none|stdvga|cirrus). +Selects the emulated video card (none|stdvga|cirrus|qxl).
