Has been changed in recent versions or something was not right even though it seemed right to me?There are multiple graphics cards to choose from. When using -vga std or -device vga, then -global vga.foo=bar gets used; if -vga cirrus or -device cirrus-vga then it needs to be -global cirrus-vga.foo=bar and any -global vga.foo=bar gets ignored - unless you manage to add it as secondary (PCI) graphics card. Thanks for your reply.Can you tell me if also -device cirrus-vga,vram_size_mb=N is correct and working? Thanks for any reply. Regards, Andreas P.S.
