Set the initial date of the real time clock. Valid format for date are: 'now' or '2006-06-17T16:01:21' or '2006-06-17'.
Select the VGA type. If you want to use high resolution modes (>= 1280x1024x16) then you should use the options 'std' or 'vmware'. Default is 'std' for win8/win7/w2k8, and 'cirrus' for other OS types. The 'qxl' option enables the SPICE display sever. For win* OS you can select how many independent displays you want, Linux guests can add displays them self. You can also run without any graphic card, using a serial device as terminal.
