I've been trying to play around with fedora 18 beta in a kvm guest on RHEL 6. But the f18 VM's screen is too big to work on the smallish monitors I have without scroll bars.
Is there some way I can force my f18 guest domain to have a resolution of 1024x768 like some other fedoras (15, 16, 17) had inside KVM?
I tried following this suggestion:
changing Driver "intel" to Driver "cirrus"
But when I put the three files in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ X won't start. Here is what is in the end of the log:
[ 51.017] (++) using VT number 1
[ 51.017] (WW) Falling back to old probe method for cirrus
[ 51.017] (--) Assigning device section with no busID to primary device

Please consult the Fedora Project support
for help.
[ 51.017] (EE) Please also check the log file at "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" for additional information.

Just putting the first file (40-monitor.conf) did not help. Putting the other two caused X to stop working...
Has anyone been able to change the resolution on a fedora 18 kvm guest before? Anyone know why the resolution got bigger in f18?
Thanks for any ideas anyone might have...
