Ok Fabio, thanks to your configure, some bits of hacking the install part and lots of advises/support/encouragements ;) from Mark Pryor I ended up installing 4.5RC4 with QXL support on Deb8 unstable.
So now what do you want me to test fabio? I have win7 x64 / win 2k8R2 vms in test mode ready to install drvers. the numerous troubles I went through are related in the IRCcopy attached. I actually couldn't build rombios and used seabios provided by the system -like you- I should try to compile/find latest qxl now. See you in 2K15. greg B 2014-12-29 14:49 GMT+01:00 Fabio Fantoni <fabio.fant...@m2r.biz>: > Il 29/12/2014 14:13, Goonie Windy ha scritto: > > ok, I'm trying to patch the files with yours, > > > I need to do it manually right?
