It ends up being a function of the guest OS - vmware's Windows driver
will refuse to run on anything but vmware's hypervisor, etc - which
means that's really more of a virt-manager question.
That said, the dumb vesa support in kvm is quite possibly a better
choice as a default than cirrus, as the latter is limited (by the choice
of chip emulated!) to 1024x768.
