From: Fabian Vogt Subject: force fb for cirrus and bochs, force drm otherwise References: bsc#888590, bsc#980750 DRM does not work well with cirrus and bochs (no display) but the framebuffer driver prevents DRM drivers from loading. As we need to support cirrus for libvirt and bochs for QEMU, we cannot just remove support for frame-buffer.
