Usually we use a VirtIO GPU for our QEMU machines. (-device virtio-gpu-pci)
There is another possibility.
The Bochs VGA.
QEMU argument: -device VGA,vgamem_mb=256
Please note: If you want to use a higher resolution then please delete the xorg conf file with the fbdev entry and login again.

If you have wrong colors in the virtual display then try -display sdl.

I haven’t tested it yet.

Want to try one of these ppc64el images with my loader. But I need to add a LE ELF loader to do that. Could cheat and see if enabling LE in MSR before and after loading works but that seems dirty. By the looks of it the kernel brings up in BE mode. deals with the device tree, then starts and switches endian to LE when it really starts. I'll test a standard image and if it loads (then crashes eventually) I'll look into compiling an LE kernel.
