[KVM-AUTOTEST PATCH] kvm_vm.py: add new VM parameter 'x11_display' that controls $DISPLAY

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If x11_display is specified, the DISPLAY environment variable is set to this
value for the QEMU process. This may be useful for SDL rendering.

Also add some comments.
