Hi,

I am trying to use Androidx-x86-8.1-r3 with qemu and 3D acceleration. This works fine and I can run the VM without problems, but when I try to change the screen resolution modifying grub/menu.lst nothing happens, It ignores the configuration.

What am I missing, Is needed any special config in the qemu command (via param or something else)?

OS: Ubuntu 20
Hypervisor: qemu with virgil stack (3D acceleration)
GPU: Nvidia GTX 980

I believe you need to use the `video` kernel command-line parameter.

How can I use this param, I didn't know about it and cannot find documentation..

Do you have some example?

Ok I got it!.

I added video=360x640 to the menu.lst in the kernel side and it works.
