Bug Description

When running ubuntu virtualized with spice enabled on the 3.10 kernel with drm qxl module results in a black screen. The image boots as expected until plymouth. The plymouth splash screen is scrambled to be replaced with a black screen. The image will then use 100% cpu of 1 core.

I have found nothing weird when booting back with kernel 3.9 and checking xorg.log. Right now I'm installing a ssh server so I might be able to get some more info about what is eating up all this cpu.
Grtz

I added the xorg.log. Interestingly as you can see the whole xserver went haywire when I tried resizing the window.

Update to 0.1.4 (with many fixes) and add (if needed) same additional patches from fedora (http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/xorg-x11-drv-qxl.git/tree/) and/or opensuse (https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/openSUSE:Factory/xf86-video-qxl) probably will solves this and other qxl bugs in ubuntu.
