Changed resolution of Neptune Linux in AQEMU and now screen is garbled.
Hi.
I upped the resolution from 1024*768 in Neptune5-Plasma5-20180310 in AQEMU 0.9.2 and now the screen is garbled. I initially increased the resolution to the next increment and then another one and it changed fine but I tried an even higher res and this is the result [see attached image].
In that case if you eliminated Xorg config settings (all .conf files I mentioned above), the issue then is in your hypervisor config. Try and load your VM using VESA instead.

So presumably XGA works fine but to what resolution did you change to when the screen got garbled?
An increase in screen resolution demands a greater amount of memory dedicated to the video output (be it real or virtual video).

I don't recall the exact resolution. I think it was 1200x something. I've since created a fresh Neptune5 VM in AQEMU and may just delete the problematic one.
