I didn't notice that warning, I should have disabled passwords for the
sake of posting, but I did many tests and I'm sure it's not a password
issue (I have the problem only with qxl enabled).

This is a log with passwords disabled:

qxl-0: ram/pri: 32 MB [region 0]
qxl-0: vram/32: 0 MB [region 1]

Is the amount of MB in the first 3 lines as expected? In another test
I tried 16M for both qxl-vga.ram_size and qxl-vga.vram_size but these
lines didn't change.
