[Bug 1078226] Re: raring daily: background & lightdm look as if they are in 8bit greyscale mode

[Phill Whiteside]

reference #8 
No, it is a ubuntu Raring Vs KVM issue, not the other way round :) KVM is part of the kernel, it is also part of cloud, guestfish which is a tool for KVM also will not run under quantal (there is new stuff being applied for raring). Raring KVM cannot run  'raring' without the video issue. KVM.... something is very broken in raring, not the other way round. 
I'm NOT 100% sure if https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1088692 is a true duplicate of this bug, as there is no section that has stated the reason for it to fail.
