** Summary changed:

- Ubuntu 14.04 guest does not boot to Unity from QEMU-KVM Ubuntu 14.04 host
+ Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, 14.10, 15.04 guests do not boot to Unity from QEMU-KVM Ubuntu 14.04 LTS host

** Description changed:

  I have installed Ubuntu 14.04.2 amd64 with all updates.
- I have downloaded the Ubuntu 14.0.4.2 i386 iso (ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-i386.iso, MD5SUM = a8a14f1f92c1ef35dae4966a2ae1a264).
  
- It does not boot to Unity from QEMU-KVM with the all following commands:
- * sudo kvm -m 1536 -cdrom ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-i386.iso
- * sudo kvm -m 1536 -cdrom ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-i386.iso -vga std
- * sudo kvm -m 1536 -cdrom ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-i386.iso -vga vmware
+ I have downloaded:
+ * Ubuntu 14.0.4.2 i386 iso (ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-i386.iso, MD5SUM = a8a14f1f92c1ef35dae4966a2ae1a264).
+ * Ubuntu 14.10 i386 iso (ubuntu-14.10-desktop-i386.iso, MD5SUM = 4a3c4b8421af51c29c84fb6f4b3fe109)
+ 
+ They do not boot to Unity from QEMU-KVM with the all the  following commands:
+ * sudo kvm -m 1536 -cdrom ubuntu-*-desktop-i386.iso
+ * sudo kvm -m 1536 -cdrom ubuntu-*-desktop-i386.iso -vga std
+ * sudo kvm -m 1536 -cdrom ubuntu-*-desktop-i386.iso -vga vmware
+ 
+ In  14.04 and 14.10 can see empty purple desktop or purple desktop with two shortcuts ("Examples" and "Install Ubuntu ...").
+ 15.10 does not boot or boot to safe graphic mode (it is bug 1437740).
+ 
+ 
+ This bug should be confirmed and fixed.
+ Users may want to run Ubuntu in QEMU/KVM, not just VirtualBox.
