Are you sure? I thought qemu ./configure allows a choice of which
graphics engines to support, and that you can compile qxl out (distros
don't do that, but a self-built qemu might support -vga but not QXL). I
think that rather than blindly setting this cap, we need to find the
right QMP command to check which graphics engines are supported.
When I tried qemu(1.3.50)
./configure --target-list=x86_64-softmmu --enable-debug
--disable-spice
#./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -h|grep -i qxl
-vga [std|cirrus|vmware|qxl|xenfb|none]
And it seem like no such QMP command for this on my qemu.
