[Spice-devel] [PATCH v2 2/2] drm/qxl: kick out vgacon

[Gerd Hoffmann]

Problem:  qxl switches from native mode back into vga compatibility mode
when it notices someone is accessing vga registers.  And vgacon does
exactly that before fbcon takes over.  So make sure we kick out vgacon
early enough that it wouldn't disturb us.
