Sure - config and full crash.log attached.

NOTE: I booted this on native hardware that _does_ have MGAG200 hardware:

  model name      : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2680 v2 @ 2.80GHz

  BIOS Information
          Vendor: Intel Corp.
          Version: SE5C600

  0b:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Matrox Electronics Systems Ltd. MGA G200e [Pilot] ServerEngines (SEP1) (rev 05)

So that's likely why you didn't see the crash under Qemu.

Thanks,

	Ingo
