Same values for "vga vmware" and "vga std".


Yes - this has been reported. We need to start emulating movdqa and a few of its friends.


So I have a nice patchset emulating this instruction (quite a pain, since this is the first sse instruction we emulate), but it doesn't help. The guest keeps using it so the display is incredibly slow.

Turns out the real problem is somewhere else - the guest is not detecting VBE properly so it is forced to use the old slow vga access. Not sure what the root cause is.

Is this with -vga std or -vga vmware?  Is this a VESA driver in the guest?
