RE: [Xen-users] Windows hvm, stdvga, videoram?

["Dustin Henning" <Dustin.Henning@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

        There are open source VESA drivers for Windows you can try (unless 
someone can tell you that there is a chipset that is being emulated for STDVGA, 
in which case you can look for drivers for it, but good luck since it is 
apparently old enough that MS doesn't even bother to support it), if you can 
find them.  They are supposed to work, and I have seen them work before, 
allowing higher resolutions.  I have also seen them not work, and I don't 
really know what the difference was.

Subject: [Xen-users] Windows hvm, stdvga, videoram?

Im setting up a bunch of windows guests, and the client asked how much
videoram I was assigning because he said things were sluggish.

I google'd and found to set stdvga = 1, videoram = 8

I had the gplpv drivers installed, video showed a cirrus car before
changing these settings, now it wants to install drivers for a vga
controller, but I cant figure out what drivers im suppose to install?
Am I doing something totally wrong? Do the gplpv drivers only work
with stdvga = 0?

If so, do I need to know what video card is actually on the
motherboard of my server or... I am fairly confused as to what to do
