Title:
  QXL crashes a Windows 7 guest if host goes into screensaver

Status in QEMU:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Note: if further information is required, I'll be glad to supply it.

  I am using on the host
  - HP z800 with 72GB RAM and 2x x5680
  - Gentoo 64-bit host (3.7.9 kernel, FGLRX RADEON driver 13.1)
  - LIBVIRT 1.0.2 with QEMU(-KVM) 1.4.0

  The guest:
  - Windows 7 32-bit
  - 2GB allocated
  - 2 CPU
  - using virtio for everything (disk,net,memballoon)
  - Display = SPICE with spice channel
  - Video driver is qxl (ram says 64MB)
  - Spice-guest-tools 0.52 installed

  When I use QXL and  have the guest open in Virt-Manager/Virt-Viewer
  and let the host go into screensaver mode, the Win7 crashes hard.

  When I change video to VGA, it survives the screen saver,  no problem
  at all ,smooth sailing.

  regards
