It ends up being a function of the guest OS - vmware's Windows driver
will refuse to run on anything but vmware's hypervisor, etc - which
means that's really more of a virt-manager question.
Hm, odd. When i switch from cirrus to the vmware display driver it seems
to work quite nicely here on my box (RHEL-6 host) and Xorg.log.0 clearly
shows it using the vmware driver in the guest, too. And i'm pretty sure
we didn't do any hacks in RHEL-6 to make this work specifically as the
default was and is cirrus driver (as limited as that may be).
Thanks & regards, Phil
