OOBE dialog does not fit in qemu VM window

Project Member Reported by cernekee@chromium.org, Sep 19 2017 
The system menu (and, more importantly, the power off button) overlap with the buttons at the bottom.  This makes it hard to navigate through the UI, and caused my VM to power off when I was trying to click a button.

This is chromiumos_qemu_image.bin from betty-release%2FR63-9932.0.0%2Fchromiumos_qemu_image.tar.xz

Started with: kvm -m 2G -smp 4 -vga cirrus -pidfile /tmp/kvm.pid -net nic,model=virtio -net user,hostfwd=tcp:127.0.0.1:9222-:22 -hda chromiumos_qemu_image.bin

I found another bug that suggesting removing OOBE from VM.
 bug 753870

We are going to transition VMs to virtio, which will give higher resolutions, and will fix that bug (because we have more screen space then). Actually it sort-of already works right now if you use virtio instead of cirrus.

Status: WontFix (was: Unconfirmed)
If you use '-vga virtio' instead of '-vga cirrus' and run a more recent qemu (e.g. qemu 2.6 that ships with the chroot) then you will have a higher resolution. cirrus limits you to 800x600 which is too small for the OOBE screen.

See go/cros-arc++-in-qemu#heading=h.pc6vjrpe3lp7 for the full command line.
Note that it also requires kernel >= 4.4, but betty meets that so you should be fine.
Marking as obsolete.
