Thanks,
I've put stdvga=0 and I've got the max resolution up to 800x600 now,
but it is not sufficient for me.

Yes, I've noticed that actually. This doesn't happen on windows domUs.

Well, I've read it. I use xl and I didn't understand why I don't have
this problem on windows-domU.
Actually the screen resolution is higher and the 4M videoram
limitation error message
doesn't not appear in the qemu-dm-windows-7.log. What about the
"cirrus" vga device
model? Something tells me that with my Open Suse guest, I've used a cirrus vga
device model, but not on windows-7. I don't remember to have done this
choice somewhere.


Thank you.
