      I'm experiencing an issue with the graphics for the console of a Windows VM. I've attached a picture of what it looks like. All my Linux VM consoles are fine although they aren't running a GUI. I'm accessing XO from a Ubuntu desktop. My googling has turned up no solutions. The boot firmware for the VM is UEFI and I have VGA enabled in the advanced settings. The VM is running management agent 9.3.2-110. Any ideas?

      TIA,
      Brad

        @olivierlambert thanks for the hint to check UEFI resolution!

        I had the same problem as @bradmbreer and selecting 1920x1080 solved the tearing both in Xen Orchestra (commit 4cf03
        Master, commit 253aa) and XCP-ng Center version 23.12.0 (build 99).

        Previously I had 1366x768 selected because I was trying out 8.3 gpu passthrough with an old monitor. It didn't work and I kept using anydesk/rustdest on that Windows VM until a couple hours ago.

          What resolution have you selected in the UEFI settings?
