I'm pretty sure it is a busted qxl driver in ubuntu.

I just installed debian 7.6 and it continues to work fine after I
added the qxl driver (which doesn't appear to be installed by default).
No problems in debian, no problems in fedora, no problems in centos.
I've gotta conclude it is qxl in ubuntu :-).
