Good, well then the emulated hardware is correct, so why is the driver not
loaded?  I followed the instructions here:

Step 6 says: "wget

tar zxf xf86-video-qxl-0.0.12.tar.gz
cd xf86-video-qxl-0.0.12

./configure --libdir=/usr/lib64 --prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install"

There were no obvious errors during the install, yet the drivers have not
been loaded.  I'm at a loss for where to begin trying to troubleshoot. 
Any ideas?  Is there an additional step required to force Ubuntu to use
the new drivers?
