Hi,
 ia64 uses VGA too. I've been able to regain some functionality with
the patch below, but the VGA modes used by our firmware still have
significant issues (once we boot to Linux userspace, VGA text mode gets
readable). It seems like perhaps we've lost support for some basic text
VGA modes. I haven't tried to understand the changes in qemu yet, but
are we sacrificing compatibility for performance? Patch and screen shot
below. Thanks,
 Alex
PS - for xen-ia64-devel, both the Open Source and Intel GFW have issues
with EFI text mode w/ this patch (use EFI shell to see it on Intel GFW).
